Clay pigeons, often referred to as clay targets, are the heart of clay shooting sports. These disc-shaped targets are crafted from a mixture of pitch and pulverised limestone, designed to shatter upon impact when hit by shotgun pellets. A standard clay pigeon typically measures 110mm in diameter and 25–26mm in height, with a weight of around 105 grams. Their aerodynamic design ensures predictable flight patterns, making them ideal for both beginners and professionals to practice and refine their skills. Whether for personal practice or organised events, high-quality clay targets play a crucial role in enhancing the shooting experience.
