Currently, we are equipped for and shoot the following games:

Trap
Trapshooting is one of the three major disciplines of competitive clay pigeon shooting (shotgun shooting at clay targets). In trap shooting, one target is launched from a single "house" or machine away from the shooter. Trapshooting is typically shot with a 12 gauge shotgun. Smaller gauge firearms (e.g. 20 gauge) can be used.  A round of trap is shoot from 5 stations consisting of 5 shots form each station.

Wobbles Trap
Wobbles trap is identical to trap, except the targets also oscillate up and down (elevation) as well as left and right.

Doubles Trap
Doubles trapshooting is shot with a double target presentation. This refers to the number of clay targets which are launched simultaneously. The shooter will load 2 shells then call for the targets and attempt to break both, one at a time.

Skeet
In skeet shooting, targets are launched from two "houses" or machines in somewhat "sideways" paths that intersect in front of the shooter. The two houses are a low house and a high house.

5-Stand
Five Stand is a type of shotgun sport shooting similar to sporting clays, trap and skeet. There are five stations, or stands and six to eight strategically placed clay target throwers (called traps). Shooters shoot in turn at various combinations of clay birds. Each station will have a menu card that lets the shooter know the sequence of clay birds he or she will be shooting at (i.e. which trap the clay bird will be coming from).
