Abstract
The apparatus comprises an upstanding target structure defining one or more scoring zones and a launcher for launching clay pigeons across the scoring zone or zones. Clay pigeons are launched from a trench and a shooter occupying a cabin scores by hitting a clay pigeon while it is within one of the scoring zones, as viewed, for instance, from a location adjacent to the shooter. The game lends itself to television coverage and a method of televising or recording the game is also disclosed.
