Hours of operation

Trap is a very fast paced sport keeping interest levels high. Shooters are grouped into 5 man squads. The first "post" engages a target then the second then the thrid. After the 5th shoots, then it's post 1 again. After 5 shots, the squad rotates 1 position clockwise moving the man on post 5 to station 1. The front line is 16 yards from the trap house. During trap tournaments, shooters are "handicapped" as far back as 27 yards. There is 1 trap machine in the trap house which "oscillates" back and forth and pauses. Hence the shooter never knows what angle the trap bird is coming out at. As the shooters moves around the field, the angle changes from left to right.
