Hey Randy, my father started me with a Remington 1100 when I was 11-ish for trap. That shotgun is a bit unwieldy for skeet though. If you're interested, I'll loan you my BT-99 for a weekend, but it's a pretty large beast... and only good for Trap (single shot).

Dont make the mistake I did and pick up one of those "youth model" rossi 20 gauge single shot break opens. Its tempting because they are cheap.....like $150. They are light as hell and kick ****in HARD! My son was 10 when i did this and he was in tears after 10 shots. Spend a little money on a semi auto or heavy over under. If it hurts to shoot theyll hate it.
my son "recovered" and shoots an old a5 browning 12g now and hits in the 20s consistently.
enjoy the time on the trap field....i shoot a couple times a month with my boy and its economical shooting and good times!
