Clay pigeon shooting

Clay pigeon shooting is like playing a game where you try to hit a flying target with a special gun called a shotgun.

Imagine you have a toy gun that shoots small round balls (like marbles) and your friends set up a flying target for you to shoot at. But instead of a real flying thing, they use a little disk made of clay that is painted to look like a bird. This disk is called a "pigeon" because back in the old days they used to use live pigeons instead of clay disks.

When you are ready, your friend will press a button to launch the clay pigeon into the air and it will start flying away from you. Your goal is to aim your toy gun and shoot the clay pigeon before it gets too far away or falls to the ground.

It takes a lot of practice and skill to do this, so don't worry if you miss a few times. You might need some help from an adult trained in this activity. Safety is very important, so always listen to the rules and wear the right protective gear to keep you safe.

Overall, clay pigeon shooting can be a fun and exciting way to learn about guns and test your aim!
