🎯 The Evolution of Clay Pigeon Shooting — From Real Birds to Compak Sporting
Once upon a time, shooting sports were not about clay targets but about real pigeons. In the 18th and 19th centuries, hunters and marksmen in England tested their skill by shooting live birds released from traps — hence the word “trapshooting.” 🕊
But as society evolved, so did the sport. By the 1860s, shooters began replacing live birds with glass balls, and soon after, the first clay targets appeared — invented in the United States by George Ligowsky.
This revolution made the sport fairer, more humane, and far more accessible.
🧱 From Trap to Skeet to Sporting
The new era gave birth to different disciplines:
Trap — single targets flying away from the shooter.
Skeet — two crossing targets, demanding rhythm and timing.
Sporting Clays — the most dynamic version, recreating the unpredictability of real hunting with multiple stands and angles.
By the 1970s and 1980s, Sporting Clays became the “golf of shooting” — diverse, elegant, and technical.
🇫🇷 The French Touch — Compak Sporting
France, the spiritual home of ball-trap, took the next step.
In the early 1990s, under the FITASC (Fédération Internationale de Tir aux Armes Sportives de Chasse), shooters created a compact version of sporting — five shooting stations (postes), six traps (lanceurs), and 25 targets per series.
This was the birth of Compak Sporting — a format that kept the rhythm and diversity of sporting but fit perfectly into smaller spaces. ⚙️
It became a new global discipline — elegant, structured, and truly accessible.
From real pigeons to flying clays, from vast fields to compact ranges — the spirit of precision, focus, and tradition lives on.

🏆 Sporting Clays — The Golf of Shooting Sports
In the 1970s, a new era began for clay shooting. Shooters wanted something more than fixed trajectories — they wanted freedom, challenge, and realism.
That’s how Sporting Clays was born — the discipline that imitates hunting in all its beauty and unpredictability. 🦆
Each stand (or poste) offers a different world:
a high crossing bird,
a fast rabbit rolling on the ground,
a chandelle soaring into the sky.
Every shot is unique — no repetition, no routine.
🎯 It’s often called “golf with a shotgun”, where precision replaces power, and calm focus defines success.
In France, shooters call it “la chasse sans gibier” — hunting without game — a perfect balance of sport, discipline, and art. 🇫🇷
To master Sporting Clays is not to fight the target — but to move in harmony with it.

🎥 Berlin Clay Shooting Grand Prix — 1929 🇩🇪
Step back almost a century — to Berlin, 1929, where marksmen gather in a snow-covered forest for one of Europe’s earliest clay shooting grand prix events. ❄️
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIEvIahWPMg
Captured by Gaumont Graphic Newsreel (Reuters), this black-and-white footage shows competitors taking aim beneath the pines, their breath visible in the cold air.
No automatic traps, no digital scores — only discipline, instinct, and the sharp crack of the gun echoing through the snow.
Each frame reflects the spirit that still defines our sport today: focus, camaraderie, and precision under pressure.
In 1929, amid winter silence, the language of sport was already universal — one pull, one shot, one perfect break.

🎥 1934 World Clay Pigeon Shooting — The Pursuit of Speed and Precision 🇮🇹
In June 1934, Italy became the stage for one of the earliest documented speed shooting events in the history of clay-pigeon competition.
Captured by Giornale Luce, this extraordinary film records the World Record attempt in rapid-fire clay target shooting — an event that blended elegance, engineering, and the human reflex at its finest.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2M3dzfRpQk
On the range, competitors load their side-by-side 12-gauge shotguns while technicians prepare mechanical trap arms — a major innovation for that time. The clays launch automatically in rhythmic bursts, and in the center stands Ettore Stacchini, president of the Italian Federation (Federazione Tiro al Volo), who performs a flawless sequence:
every target broken in mid-air, his barrels moving like clockwork.
Judges with stopwatches record the time, the crowd applauds. What we witness is more than a display of skill — it’s the birth of a new concept: speed as a measurable discipline in clay shooting.
Until then, the sport was defined by precision alone — trap, skeet, and ball-trap valued accuracy and form. But in 1934, the world saw that true mastery also meant tempo, timing, and efficiency of movement.
Stacchini’s record marked a new chapter: the synchronization of man, gun, and machine — the essence of ballistic rhythm.
Nearly a century later, the spirit of that day still lives on — in every sporting and Compak Sporting shooter who feels the same pulse when the target flies.

From Holland’s fields to the philosophy of Sporting
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeSg5XcLV0o
Unlike the strict geometry of Olympic disciplines, Sporting evolved organically — outdoors, amidst landscapes shaped by weather, wind, and imagination.
The Dutch shooters of the 1960 film represent this transition perfectly: they combine mechanical precision with the unpredictability of nature.
Each poste de tir (shooting station) offers a different challenge — a low crossing clay, a fast rabbit on the ground, a looping chandelle disappearing against the clouds.
This variety — the diversité des trajectoires — is what later became the soul of Sporting Clays, and eventually Compak Sporting, the discipline that condensed the same philosophy into a smaller arena without losing its natural rhythm.
The importance of the shooting grounds — les stands de tir
Every tradition needs a place to live.
The Dutch ranges of the 1960s — surrounded by trees, open skies, and fields — were more than shooting grounds. They were laboratories of rhythm, where sportsmen experimented with trajectories, timing, and technique.
In France, these became known as les stands de tir sportif, places of both competition and community — where shooters shared not just cartridges, but philosophy.
The stand is the heart of Sporting: it transforms space into experience. Without it, the sport is only mechanics; with it, it becomes art.
The heritage that shaped Compak Sporting
By the late 20th century, Sporting’s diversity demanded structure — and France, the cultural home of ball-trap sportif, gave it form.
Under the FITASC rules, Compak Sporting was born: five aligned shooting stations, six traps, and 25 targets per round.
Yet the roots of this discipline — its tempo, its instinctive rhythm — can be traced back to those mid-century European fields, where shooters chased clays, hares, and wind with equal focus.
“Compak Sporting is not a smaller sport — it’s Sporting concentrated, refined, and orchestrated.”
Legacy — timeless focus in motion
The 1960 Dutch film is more than historical footage; it is a bridge between eras.
The elegance of manual traps, the laughter of sportsmen, the dust of broken clays — all reveal the birth of a philosophy where every shooter reads the target’s language before pulling the trigger.
Modern Sporting and Compak Sporting still carry that same heartbeat.
The layout may have changed, the machines modernized, but the essence remains:
observation, anticipation, and the harmony between eye, barrel, and motion.
“Between the clay’s launch and its break lies a fraction of time — and the whole soul of the sport.”

The Timeless Spirit of BALL TRAP DE LA RAPPE
Tucked away in the quiet, green heart of Normandy lies a place every shooting enthusiast should visit at least once — the legendary BALL TRAP DE LA RAPPE.
More than just a Stand de tir, it’s a piece of living French sporting history. Since the 1970s, this iconic range has echoed with the crack of shotguns and the cheers of friends celebrating a perfect hit.
🏆 From a Humble Beginning to National Fame
Founded back in 1974, BALL TRAP DE LA RAPPE began as a simple countryside range for hunters and locals. But as years passed, it evolved into one of the most respected names in French clay shooting.
When world champion Christophe Auvret took over in the early 2000s, everything changed.
Under his guidance, the place transformed — new courses, modern layouts, and an energy that blended professionalism with the warmth of rural France.
Here you’ll find Parcours de Chasse (a sporting course that imitates real hunting scenes) and Fosse Universelle (a dynamic version of trap shooting where clays fly unpredictably). Both disciplines challenge shooters’ precision, reflexes, and creativity — and that’s exactly what makes this stand so special.
💥 Where Legends Took Aim
Over the years, BALL TRAP DE LA RAPPE has welcomed not just sportsmen, but true legends.
French music icons Johnny Hallyday and Sylvie Vartan once shouldered their shotguns here — adding a touch of rock’n’roll to this peaceful corner of Normandy.
That mix of celebrity charm and down-to-earth camaraderie gave the place a soul of its own. You don’t just shoot here — you feel the spirit of French sport.
🌿 Tradition Meets Modern Passion
Today, BALL TRAP DE LA RAPPE remains one of France’s best-known and most beloved Stands de tir.
Whether it’s families spending a sunny afternoon, friends challenging each other, or professionals preparing for international competitions — everyone finds something special here.
Every clay target launched carries a bit of history, and every perfect shot echoes decades of passion, precision, and community.
🤝 Why People Keep Coming Back
Ask anyone who’s been there — they’ll tell you the same: BALL TRAP DE LA RAPPE isn’t just a place to shoot.
It’s a place to connect. To challenge yourself. To share laughter and stories between the trees and the echo of shotguns.
It’s where sport meets friendship — and where the French art de vivre truly comes alive. 🇫🇷✨
