Trap Shooting This Summer?

This morning, I was perusing the website for the Gallup Shooting Range to see what facilities they have. I have not been there.

According to their website, they don't have a skeet range, but they do have a trap range. 

From their website:

Gallup Shooting Range offers the following facilities and challenging ranges in a scenic setting:

  • Rifle, Muzzleloading and Pistol
  • 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 yard targets
  • 1 Trap Range
  • Covered Shooting Lines, Shooting Benches and Covered Picnic areas with tables.

Trap is similar (it actually preceded skeet) to skeet, but with some differences. To see what they are, go here

Since trap (and skeet) involves five stands, we would need five people for a game. I have to see if I can get the gang to try out trap shooting this summer. I've only done trap shooting once, that was back in the 1980s in Sacramento.

I have shot skeet twice at the Lake Havasu City Sportsmans Club. It has to be the nicest and cleanest shooting range I've ever been to.
