That is one thing I might start to do in a few years, I couldn't shoot for years with back trouble. Now I think it would work again, might not hit to many but would love to start doing it again.

Shooting, particularly reloading, is becoming as cost prohibitive as driving. I love shooting all shotgun sports but am cutting back until I get to Florida for the winter.

My uncle is a serious shooter and reloader, but not shotguns. Unfortunately, it IS getting expensive. He bought a huge supply of reloading stuff recently, so he's OK for a few months.

He could prbably drop a few jaws on the trap range with his revolvers & rifles, though.

Already went to the MA shoot but didn't compete. One club member did win the C singles division. Costs are through the roof. I fear for the future of the sport.
