Hand Trap Range

HHA's Hand Trap Range provides members with an opportunity to enjoy recreational shotgun shooting using clay targets.

Unlike traditional trap or skeet facilities, hand trap shooting uses a portable, manually operated clay target thrower, allowing participants to practice shooting moving targets in an informal setting.


The range is a useful place to develop hand-eye coordination, timing, and fundamental shotgun skills, whether you're preparing for a day in the field or simply enjoying recreational clay shooting.


Facility Highlights

  • Dedicated recreational shotgun shooting area
  • Clay target shooting with hand-operated throwers
  • Opportunities to practice tracking and engaging moving targets
  • A setting for informal shotgun practice


Members should bring their own appropriate shotgun, ammunition, clay targets, and necessary shooting equipment.


Range Availability

The Hand Trap Range is subject to restrictions during certain organized activities, including Black Powder Woods Walk events. Members should check the club calendar and posted notices before use.


All shooting must remain within the designated range boundaries and follow posted facility regulations.
