We have introduced a new game, played from the 5-Stand, called 3 Bird Hunt and Cover! 

​

Here's how it works:

​

1. Teams consist of two shooters. Each shooter is allowed 2 rounds in the gun.

 

The primary shooter will be in stand 1, the cover shooter in stand 4. In the event of 2 teams shooting at the same time, the second team will shoot from stand 2 and 5, respectively.

 

At the call of pull, 3 targets will be launched. The cover man will shoot one of the targets as the primary shooter attempts the other 2. At the miss of a target the cover man will attempt to break the target. Coordination of the order targets are broken is left to the shooters.

​

2. The grid will consist of a standard 5 stand layout, with the addition of 2 extra traps. 

 

Called the X bird, they will be placed in front of stand 1 and stand 5. At the call of pull, the trapper will release a pair of targets from the standard grid as well as one of the X birds. The X bird will be released in a random fashion. The X target may be released from either trap machine.

 

A round will consist of 51 targets. 17 pairs from the standard grid and 17 singles from the X bird trap machines.
