What is OLYMPIC skeet shooting?

Skeet shooting involves using a shotgun to shoot clay targets that are launched into the air. However, it is a bit more involved than that. There are variations in the United States as well as the international variation, which is the basis for the Olympics event. The international variation is known as “Olympic skeet” or simply “International skeet”.

International skeet shooting, the Olympic game variation and governed by the ISSF, involves two towers at opposite sides of a shooting field. The tower on the left is referred to as the “high house.” And the one on the right is, as you might guess, known as the “low house”. The targets are mechanically flung into the air by these two towers at various angles, from left to right and from right to left.

The skeet field has eight stations that are arranged in a semicircle. Each squad or individual starts at the one closest to the high house. From there the participants work their way around the stations. The object is, of course, to shoot a given sequence of targets at each station and try not to miss any. The participants go around all eight stations for a round of twenty-five total targets.

In the international game there are specific shooting sequences at each station. The targets can be launched across the field as singles or doubles. In other words, a single target may be launched or two targets depending on the sequence at each specific station.
