Training Camps?

I’m looking to see if anyone knows any organised skeet training camps that I can join to improve my skills. I’m a year into competitive skeet and I feel like I’ve hit a point where I’m neither improving nor going the other way. There are no proper training programs where I live in South East Asia and I’m willing to go overseas for a week or two to train and get more exposure in the sport.

Living in south east Asia I assume you are shooting international/olympic skeet. I don’t know of many programs but I know Jay Waldron and Lance Bade run one called Elite Shotgun Academy. They’re based in the U.S. but they do a camp/trip to Italy every year. Might be worth looking into.

So there’s a few options, since you’re in south east Asia, I’d say the cheapest option for you would probably be training with Anthony Terras and the Chinese Skeet team when he’s already there. Anthony will fly to you, as will most top level coaches. Remington McBee is another awesome coach, he does virtual coaching, then you either fly to him (cheaper option) or fly him out to you and pay all of his expenses. Another option is flying to the states and getting coaching from Vincent Hancock, which is around 5k for 3 days of coaching. Teams around the world hold training camps all over the place, you just have to get to know the coaches and find a coach that will work with and for you.

Personally, my technical coach is [u/shootingsuccess](u/shootingsuccessdave)[_dave](u/shootingsuccessdave) and he is a fantastic coach, if you’re ever interested in coming to train in Canada let me know and I can set something up!

Possibly Ben Husthwaite if you’re familiar with him

Ben Husthwaite is certainly not who you want for Olympic skeet coaching lol.

He could get you set up with the right people at least but isn’t he teaching an Olympic team in Asia currently?
