Sporting Clays will humble you fastly.
Yes they will. My son and family spent the holidays out here in Az, took a day to shoot clays, son was going to humble the old man. We were pretty much nose to nose until I pulled out my hammer coach gun and started busting clays. Not to be outdone, he pulled out his coach gun, and well, he was humbled and couldn't hit a bird !
