trap for bachelor party - need suggestions

[TonyDedo]

A friend of a friend came to me the other day asking for some advice, and I don't think I gave him a good enough answer, so I figured I'd throw it up here.

His friend is getting married, and instead of doing the traditional round of golf, he wants to shoot trap with the guys before the wedding. Most of them are unlicensed novice shooters, so he's looking for a facility where they can rent shotguns, buy ammo and shoot trap for the day (under the supervision of some sort of an instructor or RO, I would expect). Anyone know of a place in the area that would facilitate such an event?

My other thought was to hire an instructor with access to the equipment and facilities who could organize the shoot for them - would anyone with the qualifications be interested in making a few bucks doing this?

Thanks!

It maybe a bit far. Try Addieville Farm in RI. They have 5 stand and sporting clays and you can hire an instructor also. non-members allowed during the week only.

Trap might be hard to set up - a day of shooting pistols will be easier - Manchester Firing Line, Original Bob's, etc will have lanes & pistols to rent - ammo available too...

Minuteman is a shotgun only club and their website says something about corporate events.

Sounds like a fun Bachelor party and one where you can't get in trouble.
Your still doing the old bowling ball handcuffed to the bachelor thou I hope ?

Ohhhh... you mean that kind of trap.

Since it is for a bachelor party, I was thinking of another kind of trap to spring on your buddy just for the lulz and obligatory home video so you guys can look back on it later in life...

Is that new? I went to a bachelor party at Addieville a while back. It was great, we shot a round of sporting clays and then had a cookout. They let us use their picnic tables and grills. About half the guys were licensed, so we just brought spare guns and ammo for the others.

We've done this before - bradm was right to refer you to me.

I'm still trying to figure out how you are going to shoot trap with all the strippers dancing around. That sounds dangerous.

I can work the trap that day and I'll be happy to keep the ladies company.

You must have seen me say, "Trap shooters are rugged, not bright" before. We'll find a way!
