Clay pigeon shooting is a popular sport among shooting enthusiasts. It is the art of shooting at special flying targets, which are known as clay pigeons or clay targets with a shotgun. It is also known as Inanimate Bird Shooting. In this, a target is called a ‘target’ or ‘bird,’ a hit is referred as a ‘hit’ or ‘kill,’ a missed target referred as ‘bird away,’ and the machine that projects the targets is known as a ‘trap’.
A shotgun used in clay pigeon shooting is a smooth barreled gun, not an air gun. The pump action guns are considered unsuitable for the clay pigeon shooting. The targets used for the game are usually in shape of an inverted saucer, which is made up from a mixture of pitch and chalk designed to withstand being thrown from the traps at very high speeds, but at the same time being easily thrown from the traps at very speeds. At the same time being easily broken when hit by just few lead or steel pellets shot from a shotgun.
