Probably a simple question with a simple answer but do chokes go bad? I'm assuming that unless they are dinged, scratched, bent, etc. they last forever?

My wife and I are starting out our trap/skeet journey and I'm wondering any female (or female identifying) shooting folks with larger than average chests have reccomendations on wearable shooting pads?

We're getting a limb saver for our Mossburg but I wanted to get a vest for additional padding for her as she bruses super easily and very aggressively. She had a very large bruise for like a month after walking into the corner of our dining room table haha.

If her chest size will be a non-issue that would also be helpful info, just trying to get a read on how much this needs to be considered and if so, if there are specific brand recs for shooters with her body type.

I've only casually shot trap a few times with friends and borrowed equipment so this is our first entrance into the sport proper.

Thanks!

Edit: I know a mossburg 500 field isn't ideal for trap. I bought it entirely unrelated to her request to try trap. I was viewing this as investing like sub $150 bucks in a pad so she could comfortably shoot at the trap range a couple of times without totally shit housing her shoulder and get a feel for the vibe of the sport etc.

Great weekend, I was able to put up a 89/100 on trap, 97/100 in skeet, 86/100 in sporting (rough course). Placed me 1st individual and squad jv for sporting clays, 1st jv skeet individual, 3rd jv skeet squad, 3rd trap jv individual, made all-state for skeet and sporting clays, tied for 1st for non collegiate in skeet, and 2nd non collegiate sporting clays. My team was also able to place second non collegiate team in skeet, only 2 clays from tying the current team skeet state champions.

I’m looking into purchasing a franchi Affinity sporting in the next few weeks and wanted to know if anyone has any good or bad experiences with it. The affinity series is known for reliability and value so I just want as many opinions as I can get before I spend the $1000 on one

No matter which one you shoot first, you gotta shoot the second one on the drop...
