The Skeet Field Layout diagram is referenced in Paragraph 1-C. The text provides the elevation for each station within nine inch of station 8, plus or minus three inches for target emerge height. The D-sized drawing is easier to read than the smaller Win field drawings. This is especially important for large-scale projects. The diagram is available for $25 from the NSSA.
Olympic skeet
Since 1968, the Olympic skatet has been an integral part of these games. The international competition closely mirrors its domestic counterpart. In the sport, teams of six shooters fire a fixed course of 25 targets from eight firing stations. Each shooter begins with the butt stock of a shotgun at hip height. The throwing machines are located on either side. There are two types, singles and doubles. Shooters can fire one shot at each target. Shooters need to aim accurately at each target as they can only hit one shot.
The field is usually three to four meters wide. The Olympic Skeet is more technically-oriented than most other disciplines. This means that the rules can be more complex. The maximum load for the cartridge is 24 grammes. The shot size should not exceed 2.5 mm. 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. A 600 yard long parcel and 300 yards wide land parcel will be sufficient to host a skeet range. You will then need to install a semicircular skeet firing line along the long side. You should place skeet shooting stations at approximately eight feet and thirteen meters from each other.
You can also determine the range distance by measuring the size of the target area. Each target will require at least 50 yards and each trap 20 yards. You may need more land for certain shooting games. Also, ensure that the shooting range complies with the Amateur Trapshooting Association's standard range specifications. These specifications address both walkways, as well shotfall areas. These specifications are intended to ensure that the range is safe for shooters and players.
Target sequences
The Olympic Skeet is one of the most difficult sports. A random timer releases a clay target one to three seconds after the call. Each team must shoot a series of targets in a sequence in order to win. The field dimensions and target sequences for skeet vary. Here is a list with possible fields and target sequences to play competitive games.
A skeetfield consists of two traphouses, or shooting stations. On either side of the shooting area, there are two of these houses. The trap 10 feet above the ground holds the high house targets, while the trap 3 1/2 feet below the ground holds the low house targets. Different competitions have different target sequences. The high house target is in a higher place than the low house target.
Safety
If you're looking to go skeet shooting, you'll want to make sure you have the proper safety dimensions. Sket fields are often placed in open areas to ensure everyone can see the targets. Skeet shots can be taken between 20 and 25 yards. Typically, you'll use small pellets with open chokes. Listed below are some safety considerations you'll want to consider before you start.
