It gradually evolved into a hobby, initially for the wealthy and elite, and now is a fun pastime for everyone to enjoy. A clay is a 4-inch clay disk that is shot through the air at speeds upwards of 41 mph. This clay target is meant to simulate the movements of wild game such as grouse, duck, pheasant, quail, and even rabbit. The direction, height, and speed of clays are adjusted to test the range and skill of each shooter and further mimic the erratic movements of hunting in the wild. At Casa de Campo Resort & Villas, gun rental and ammunition are included with each round of shooting, allowing guests of all skill levels to participate. ##### ## Shooting Options ### Trap Trap shooting involves 5 different stands where you shoot at clays moving away from you at a consistent height. ### Skeet Our skeet shooting involves eight positions with clays crossing in front of you at both low and high heights. ### Sporting Clays This most accurately mimics the movements of live game, with each target moving at a different height, speed, and position. ## Availability Thanks to the Dominican Republic’s beautiful climate, our shooting facilities are open year-round. Lessons are available daily from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and our staff is always ready to help you plan a group or team event. ## Shoot to win 2017 brings an exciting first to the shooting range at Casa de Campo Resort & Villas: our 1st Annual Sporting and 5-Stand Pro-Am Clay Shoot Tournament!
