| I'm looking to buy or build if I have to a target stand to hold a single clay pigeon for shooting at. It would need to hold the clay pigeon vertically. Anyone know if they make something like this or anyone have any ideas or plans on how to build one? |

well...maybe we need more specific details, like what distance you plan to use it at, and what do you plan to shoot it with? Seems like you'd be changing out the clay pretty often unless you have poor eyesight or shaky hands, or some other condition that lowers your accuracy. I mean, you COULD do it with duct tape and a stick. if you wanted several targets, get 2 - 2 x 4's or lengths of PVC tubing, sink 'em into the ground, run a line between the posts and hand several clays at different heights off the line.
there are a million + ways to make a great target, cheaply, portably, easy to reload, etc. etc. etc....just have to know what your setup is. I have seen (don't recall where, but within the last 3 months) a simple wire that holds a clay and sticks into the ground - like a coat hanger with a clay holder on top, so the flat top ofhte clay is toward the shooter - this would be cheap, portable, simple... |
Here's a simple and cheap target stand.
