Trap Shooting

Trap shooting is a competitive sport where participants aim to hit clay disks, called targets, launched from a machine called a trap. The trap releases targets at varying angles and speeds, simulating bird hunting. Shooters use shotguns and attempt to break the targets in a set number of rounds, usually aiming for the highest possible score. The sport tests accuracy, timing, and quick reflexes, and it can be enjoyed recreationally or competitively at local or national levels. Safety and focus are essential, as shooters must control their firearm and anticipate the target's trajectory.
