What
Are Sporting Clays? |
|
 |
Both
addictive and challenging, sporting clays is often referred
to as "golf with a gun". Instead of sinking
a ball into a hole, shooters aim to break targets along
a designated course. Families, men, women and children
can safely enjoy this energetic sport. |
Started in England in the 1920's, sporting clays began as
a way for hunters to practice their skills on shooting courses
designed to simulate different hunting situations. Stations
positioned in the woods or clearing allowed shooters to aim
their shotguns at clay disks known simply as "clays".
"Birds" were shot into the sky while "rabbits"
and similar animals ran along the ground.
This
sport arrived in the US a little more than a decade ago and
has triggered regional and national attention. Sporting clays
is rapidly developing into one of the our country's fastest-growing
pastimes. The Eastern Shore of Maryland and Pintail Point
are becoming known as a destination for this exciting sport.
| The
Pintail Point Sporting Clays course consists of 20 stations
that include 5 stand and wobble trap. The course encompass
55 acres of land along the banks of the Wye River. |
