| The "Five Stand" at the Hamilton Trap Club. |
|
Sometimes overlayed on a trap or skeet field, Five Stand is a great way to get a Sporting Clays like experience in a small amount of space, with very little walking. No two five-stands are exactly alike.
There are five "stands" or stations to shoot from. There are usually somewhere between 6 and 9 traps that throw targets. Participants shoot in turn at each of the 5 stands and various combinations of targets are thrown from the traps.
There are three levels of difficulty: Level I, five single targets with full use of the gun for scoring; Level II, three single and a simultaneous pair; Level III, one single and two simultaneous pairs. Shooters (squad of five) can move from station to station with a predetermined menu of shots and combinations, or in a sequence unknown to the shooters
