Shotgun

Skeet

Skeet is played with two machines, one in a low house and one in a high house (the designation of high and low relates to the location of the machine in relation to the ground). The openings of the houses face each other, and the targets are thrown with no side-to-side or up-and-down variation (except for wind). The shooters shoot a total of 25 targets in varying sequence from seven stations arranged in a semicircle between the two houses, and one station located exactly between the houses.

Trap

Trap is played by shooting five shots from each of five stations (25 targets) located 16-27 yards behind a trap house. A trap target is thrown at an unknown angle from the house. The targets may be thrown with a set or varying height off the ground.

Skrap

Skrap is a combination of Skeet and Trap.  It is shot on the trap field from stations that would ordinarily be used for skeet which are approximately 26 yards behind the trap house.  Targets are thrown at unknown angles and heights. 

5-Stand

5-Stand features a line of five stands/stations for shooters and a number of launchers arranged in front of the shooters, to their sides, overhead, and sometimes even behind them. Shooters are presented five targets at each station, 25 targets in all.  Five Stand throws the widest variety of targets.  They can fly across the field, away from you, toward you, straight up, and even run across the ground like a rabbit. For hunters, it's a great game, giving them the chance to work on shots simulating everything from fleeing rabbits and flushing quail to ducks dropping into a set of decoys

Manual Trap Machines
There are two manual, 3/4 cock, hand traps located on the shotgun ranges. These machines may be used any time when the trap and skeet ranges are not being used. The maximum shot size is 8. While clay targets are occasionally available for purchase at the Outdoor Range clubhouse, members should plan to bring their own targets. Instructions for using these machines are posted near them and must be followed. The machines should be covered when not in use.
