5-Stand Shooting
​
​
​

​
​
A practice or competition event will consist of shooting two 25 target rounds for a total of 50 targets. Athletes compete in turn taking five shots at clay targets from five separate stations (stands).
​
Skeet Shooting
​
Skeet shooting is a recreational and competitive activity where participants, using shotguns, attempt to break clay targets mechanically flung into the air from two fixed stations at high speed from a variety of angles.
​
Skeet is one of the three major disciplines of competitive clay pigeon shooting. The others are trap shooting and sporting clays. There are several types of skeet, including one with Olympic status (often called Olympic skeet or international skeet) and many with only national recognition.
​

Trap Shooting
​
Trap shooting is one of the three major disciplines of competitive clay pigeon shooting (shooting shotguns at clay targets). The other disciplines are skeet shooting and sporting clays.
They are distinguished roughly as follows, with variations within each group:
-
In trap shooting, the targets are launched from a single "house" or machine, generally away from the shooter.
-
In skeet shooting, targets are launched from two houses in somewhat sideways paths that intersect in front of the shooter.
