Company clays shoot

[Bravo11]

We're about to get a company clays shoot organized.
I was wondering if anyone knew of any good sequences for friendly scoring.
In the past we have just had a man up and shoot at a single pass from one direction, then rotate thru everyone then maybe from another direction, rotate, doubles, etc... then keep up with misses.
Any ideas.

Are you shooting at a sporting clays range, a skeet range, trap range, or what?

I do a fair number of corporate shoots at my company's skeet range. The time is consumed by non-shooters who cannot load the gun, don't know how to push the button to off-safe, etc. You will get more shooting in if you fire several rounds each time a shooter comes up to the station. If you have absolute neophites, it helps to have a "loader/coach" to stand with the shooter (slightly behind) and talk her/him through the round.

Finally, and most important -- don't ever let anyone load more than 2 shells in the gun. You won't need more than that for any bird.

Clemson,
I would call this a sporting clays range. It's a concrete pad overlooking an open field. We would be using portable traps, probably two.
I agree on the two shells, besides if you let some of these folks load a full magazine they might try to unload it at a single bird.
Most shooters would be familiar with shotgun, probably using there own. Might be a couple of folks new to guns that we would team up with a coach.
How do you score your company shoots? What is the setup or sequence for each shooter?
Thanks for the reply

For a company shoot, I wouldn't score unless there was a competition that was separate from the casual shooters. The neophytes can score themselves, such as "I did pretty good, it was fun!!" The Skeet & Trap shooters will know who they are and can also score themselves unless you really want a formal match -- "The XYZ Corporate Nationals" . You'd be better off keeping it simple.

Is there a reason you need to keep score -- prizes, promotions, office selection?

[Bravo11]

No reason for keeping score, except bragging rights for the top gun. It probably wouldn't be me, I have good days and bad days and good days come when people aren't around. Mini prizes are possible. I'm not a golfer but on the golf outings they usually give out some trinkets.

We have a regulation skeet range and shoot regular 25-bird rounds. High score wins.

I have occasionally painted clay pigeons Gold, Silver, and Bronze to use as prizes. No cost, and they look cool on somebody's desk (until dropped).

We sometimes put different colored birds in the magazine for every tenth bird or so. A shooter who gets one of those and hits it gets a special prize.
