Clay Laser Shooting

For a brilliant adrenaline rush why not hire our Laser Clay Shooting System. A great activity at any event, particularly a stag or hen do, or even the wedding itself.

Clay laser shooting provides a great opportunity for everyone to enjoy the thrill of shotgun shooting in perfect safety with the added benefit of posing no threat to the environment.

Clay pigeon shooting, also known as clay target shooting, is a shooting sport involving shooting a firearm at special flying targets known as clay pigeons, or clay targets. Clay laser shooting takes this a stage further. Absolutely safe, environmentally friendly, it is ideal for team building activities, weddings, stag and hen parties, fetes, parties and corporate events.

Players use real shotguns that have been deactivated and modified to 'fire' a harmless beam of infra red light (they're not actually lasers, and so are completely safe). Clays are launched by a conventional clay trap and the technology does the rest, adding the sounds of the guns being fired and the clays being hit as well as recording each player's hits and keeping score.

The terminology commonly used by clay shooters often relates to times past, when live-pigeon competitions were held. Although such competitions were made illegal in the United Kingdom in 1921, a target may still be called a "bird", a hit may be referred to as a "kill", and a missed target as a "bird away"; the machine which projects the targets is still known as a "trap".

Clay targets began to be used in place of live pigeons around 1875. Asphalt targets were later developed, but the name "clay targets" stuck. In 1893, the Inanimate Bird Shooting Association was formed in England. It was renamed to the Clay Bird Shooting Association in 1903. It held annual clay-pigeon-shooting contests and lasted until the outbreak of World War I. In 1921, the British parliament passed a bill without opposition making it illegal to shoot birds from traps.
