Skeet shooting crown land
This has been a problem of mine for a bit now. I can't find any good spots to go throw some clays. Anyone know of any good crown land to go on?

Once you're well off the beaten path,there's lots of open spaces where you could bust a few clays. It's extremely important,though,that you leave no trace you were ever there. Just don't bring unwanted attention to yourself and remember,there's zero tolerance for littering.
If a tree falls on your ex in the woods and nobody hears it,you should probably still get rid of your chainsaw. Just sayin'....

I don't think it's possible for a backwoods clay target shooter to leave "no trace." Some might make the effort but too often you find broken clays, wads and hulls scattered in the otherwise pristine bush. If you want to break clays find a gun club and shoot there.

I agree. I didn't think it necessary to state the obvious.

"Up North" --- we used to do it in clear cuts. Wide open space and easy to access.

Easy to say, but if you want to do a lot of shooting you can only do that with your own trap launcher.
If I go to our local skeet range I might shoot a maximum of three boxes of shells waiting for multiple squads of five to cycle through the range.
If I go out to crown land (clear cut or old abandoned gravel runway) I will often shoot 400 rounds in an afternoon. It would take 6 days to do the same at our local club.
When I want to practice I want to do a lot.

All the clubs in the area are full for 2 years min. Haven't been able to find one
