When I shoot trap I use win. aa low recoil, less stress on my body when I blow through 2 cases in a session. If you want a cheap place to shoot there is a free range down at desplains conservation area. You just have to bring your own trap and targets. Cabelas has some nice cheap do-all traps for under 100. Targets are about 12 per 135 count

I usually just buy the cheap remington or winchester brick of 100. I can usually find it on sale for like $20 at Farm&Fleet. Shooting trap theres really no wrong load as long as you stay cheap and dont buy buckshot. 
also, stick with the hand throwers. theyre alot more fun than the Do-All trap throwers. I bought a Do-All to "upgrade", and i never use it anymore. You only get one trajectory. With hand throwers you can throw them wherever you want. Makes for better real life wingshooting practice than just pointing ure shotgun at a fixed point and waiting for the clay to reach it....

you should come shoot with us then, i have the do-all with the swivel head on it. allows me to throw the target anywhere in the sky without the use of tools for adjusting. one may be low to the ground and the next one i throw will be almost straight up in the air lol we have never been bored with it lolI usually just buy the cheap remington or winchester brick of 100.
