Clay pigeons ²

Clay pigeons, also known as clays, are essential targets in shotgun sports like trap, skeet, and sporting clays. Designed to mimic the flight of game birds, they allow shooters to hone their accuracy, timing, and control in a controlled environment. Over the years, clay pigeons have evolved from simple discs to high-performance, environmentally friendly targets used by amateurs and professionals alike.

Today, there’s a growing demand for biodegradable clay pigeons that combine precision with sustainability, allowing you to enjoy your sport without harming the environment.

Clay pigeons are primarily used in various shooting disciplines, including:

• Trap shooting: where clays are launched away from the shooter at varying angles.
• Skeet shooting: where targets cross each other in front of the shooter.
• Sporting clays: simulating real-life hunting scenarios with different launch angles, speeds, and elevations.

These versatile targets help shooters sharpen their skills and prepare for hunting season or competitive events. Whether you're a novice or an experienced shooter, using the right clay pigeon can make a big difference in both performance and overall experience.

Traditional clay pigeons were made with pitch and petroleum-based materials. While effective, these materials are non-biodegradable and can accumulate on shooting ranges, creating long-term environmental concerns, especially on private land, farms, or areas near water.

That’s why many shooters now opt for biodegradable clay pigeons, which naturally break down over time. At Nordic Clays, we’re proud to offer the best biodegradable clay pigeons for sale, so you can shoot with precision while reducing your ecological footprint.

Automatic clay throwers have quickly become the preferred choice for both amateur and professional shooters. Their speed, reliability, and ease of use offer several practical benefits:

• Consistency: Targets are launched with identical force and direction every time, allowing for precise skill development.
• Solo shooting capability: Many models can be controlled remotely or used with timer features, so you don’t need a second person.
• High-volume sessions: Ideal for events or clubs, especially when using a commercial clay pigeon thrower capable of launching hundreds of clays in a single round.
• Angle and speed adjustments: Fine-tune your training by controlling trajectory and velocity with simple dials or digital interfaces.
• Durability: Designed to withstand weather and heavy use - many modern clay throwers are made from corrosion-resistant materials and built for long-term performance.

• Eco-friendly: Made from natural, degradable materials like limestone and resin, safe for the environment.
• Safe for animals and land: Non-toxic and ideal for use in rural or natural areas.
• No cleanup required: Targets naturally decompose over time.
• Just as durable: Built to withstand high-speed launches without shattering prematurely.
• Compatible with automatic launchers: Including our TrapMaster clay pigeon thrower.
