5 STAND
For those who are lacking the time required (or even money) for a full round of sporting clays, there is 5 Stand. A fast paced and action packed shooting sport, 5 Stand is sometimes referred to as mini sporting clays. Unlike Skeet and Trap, 5 Stand has a wide variety of targets thrown. With between 6 and 8 throwers, you will see everything from sliding, crossing & falling patterns of clays.
There are five shooting stands (hence the name) placed around the field. Each shooter will start in a separate stand and after each round, move to the next stand until each station has been shot. Each shooter will see 25 clays and the person who breaks the most, wins!

Experience
There are several clay shooting games set up for shooters at the Blackwood Gun Club Clay Range. People generally shoot clays for fun, to get ready for bird hunting or for competition and also as a networking or teambuilding activity. Clay shooting is a fast growing hobby among every age & gender and can be enjoyed by beginners alongside the expert shooter, which is great for family, business associates and friends, young and old.

Yes! We have parking for vehicles with trailers on the east end of the property.
4Will I be able to shoot myself, or do I need a ``puller?``
Here at Blackwood, we recently automated our Sporting Clay Fields. You can now shoot Sporting Clays by yourself. Simply set your preferred delay on the control box and get ready. Skeet & Trap now have a voice operated remote that can be clipped on a belt or pocket making it possible to shoot alone.
