Compak/Sporttrap

Compak Sporting, or Sporttrap, consists of 5 shooting stands, each within a cage to prevent inadvertently following a target to the extent of pointing in an unsafe direction. The stands are arranged in a straight line at 3 yard intervals. 5 traps are set around the stands to produce different sporting targets, and each one is marked with a letter board from A to E.

In front of each stand is a menu board showing the targets to be shot from that stand. These vary from stand to stand but each one has a single target first, then an on report pair, and finally a simultaneous pair. Usually 5 shooters go one onto each stand, when they will be shown one target from each of the traps. Then each shooter in turn has their single target, at which they can use both barrels if necessary.

Then each shooter in turn has their on report pair, and finally each has their simultaneous pair. Then each shooter moves one stand to their right with the rightmost shooter moving to the leftmost stand. The sequence is repeated until all shooters have shot at each stand.

Suggestions for targets and help setting them up is always welcome.
