Trapshooting 101 Trapshooting is a specific form of clay target shooting. Trapshooting is a game of movement, action and split-second timing. It requires the accuracy and skill to repeatedly aim, fire and break the 4 1/4 inch disc which are hurled through the air at a speed of 42 mph, simulating the flight path of a bird fleeing a hunter.

Trapshooting 101 Singles trapshooting The shooter stands 16 yards away from the center of the trap house and shoots at random targets that fly at various angles in front of the shooter Shooters are grouped into squads of five shooters There are five positions that each shooter shoots 5 single targets from, for a total of 25 shots or one round
