Trap:
The simplistic of them all. A round consists of 25 birds thrown in 5 bird increments. There are 5 shooting stations in which you shoot 5 birds at each one. You stand at 16yds from the Trap house, shoot in order station 1, 2...then the order starts over until this is done 5 times, then a right hand rotation. Shooter 1 moves to station 2 and Shooter 5 go around to station 1. The birds will fly at 5 different angles. From straight away to far left or far right.
Skeet:
The second most known type of clay game. This is very different from trap where the birds are thrown across the field instead of flying away from the shooter. In this sport, you move stations after every shooter has shot at the station. The birds come from two locations. The "High House" and the "Low House." You will see the same bird every time, but the angle will be slightly different based on what station you are at.
There are International Trap and Skeet which are obviously Internationally difficult.
The birds are twice as fast and 4 times as hard to hit. These sports have a different rotation but they are still based on the same fundamental of 25 birds.
