The Skeet Field Layout diagram is referenced in Paragraph 1-C. The text specifies the height of each station within nine inches from station 8. It allows plus or minus 3 inches in target emergence. The D-sized drawing makes it much easier to see than earlier Win field drawings. This is especially useful when working on large-scale projects. NSSA provides the diagram for $25.
Olympic skeet
Since 1968 the Olympic skeet is an annual event in the games. The international competition closely mirrors domestic competition. Six shooters form teams and fire a fixed course of 25 shots from eight firing stations. Each shooter begins with the butt stock of a shotgun at hip height. The fields are dotted with throwing devices on either side. There are two types: singles or doubles. Each target can be shot by shooters, one at a time or twice. The shooters must aim for each target precisely, as they must hit a single shot.
The field is typically three to four meters in width. The Olympic Skeet has more technical rules than other disciplines. The maximum cartridge load is 24 grams and the shot size cannot exceed 2.5mm. The shooting distance is approximately 75 meters (230yds), but can vary from one game to another. It is possible for targets to be shot from different angles.
Trap ranges
To plan a skeet and trap shooting range, you must first determine the dimensions of the land parcel. For a skeet range, a 600-yard parcel of land should suffice. Install a semicircular line of skeet firing lines along the long end. Your skeet shooting stations should be located at eight and thirteen metres from one another.
It is also possible to measure the area of the target in order to calculate the range distance. At least 50 yards will be needed for each target and 20 to each trap. Certain shooting games will require more land. Also, ensure that the shooting range complies with the Amateur Trapshooting Association's standard range specifications. These specifications are applicable to both shotfall areas and walkways. These specifications aim to make the range safe for both shooters and players.
Target sequences
The Olympic skeet can be considered one of most difficult sports. The clay target is released by a random timer after each call. In order to win, each team must shoot a sequence of targets. Skeet has different target sequences and field dimensions. Below is a list containing possible fields and target sequences.
A skeet fields consists of two traphouses or shooting stations. Two of these houses are on either side of the shooting field. The high house targets are thrown from a trap located 10 feet above the ground, while the low house targets are thrown from a trap three-and-a-half feet above the ground. The target sequences can vary between competitions. For example, the high house target targets a higher position than that of the low house target.
Safety
Skeet shooting is a sport that requires you to have the right safety dimensions. Most skeet fields are placed in open fields so that everyone can see the targets. Skeet shots generally are taken about 20-25 yards away. Typically, you'll use small pellets with open chokes. Before you start, here are some safety considerations.
