As someone who knew Obama when we were both at the University of Chicago, I don't believe him at all that he likes to go skeet shooting all the time. His extreme dislike for anything that had anything to do with guns just isn't consistent with his claim. From Fox News:
Straight Shooter?
Few people are buying President Obama's claim that he is a big fan of skeet shooting.
The president was asked by the New Republic -- quote -- "Have you ever fired a gun?" President Obama answered -- quote -- "Yes, in fact, up at Camp David we do skeet shooting all the time."
New York Magazine called out the president's phrasing saying, that -- quote -- "...is how people usually talk about things with which they are not very familiar. Your grandma asks you if you 'do Twitter.'"
The Washington Post looked at the president's past statements and found no mention of skeet shooting.
It labels, curious, that the White House is refusing to provide evidence that the president has ever used the shooting range. . . .
