Trapshooting is...

...one of the three major disciplines of clay pigeon shooting

At PCFGA we shoot singles. In singles, the shooters stand 16 yards away from the center of the "trap house" and shoot at random targets that fly at various angles in front of them. Shooters are grouped into squads, usually made up of up to five people. There are five positions that each shooter shoots from, five shots per position, totaling to twenty five shots or one round. This gives participants a different view of the target flying through the air. Each position is a constant 16 yards from the trap house, each one is spaced three feet apart forming a small arc.
