I maintain a membership and shoot sporting clays regularly. You and
Krause do not. Here's a test. You are at a shooting station with two (2)
sets of doubles. One trap throws the bird directly at your forehead, the
other is a distant tower throwing the bird away. If you shoot the tower
bird first the other bird will be no more than 30' away when you finally
pull the trigger on it. Which bird do you shoot first?

I'll shoot the one going away. Even if a bird *did* fly at my forehead, I'd
let it go

Then there's no reason to ask the follow up question as to which barrel
you'd select for each shot as you failed at the double.

The barrel selection question will be reserved for someone who actually
shoots sporting clays. Unlike you, they will know the correct answer and
the reason it is pertinent.

Ask your fellow loser Wile Coyote if you can borrow his Acme catalog,
Snippy.

Hey, don't knock the Acme Products catalog - there's a ton of neat
stuff in there.

Everything from rocket powered roller skates to really funky looking
spring loaded tennis shoes.

Not to mention the classic, all purpose black flying black anvil.

There was even an anvil with a parachute!
