Definition
A standard blaze is a type of clay target that has the same dimensions as a standard clay (approximately 110 mm in diameter) but features a bright orange coating. The vivid color makes it easier to see in flight, particularly against natural backgrounds.
Further Explanations
Standard blaze clays are among the most widely used targets in sporting clays, skeet, and trap. Their size matches the competition standard, while the orange blaze finish provides high visibility in varied light and terrain conditions.
Key characteristics of standard blaze targets:
-
Diameter: around 110 mm
-
Bright orange surface for visibility
-
Same breakability as standard black clays
-
Ideal for both training and competition use
These targets help shooters acquire the target faster, track it more easily, and refine their timing.
At Nordic Clays we provide biodegradable clay pigeons, including blaze-colored options for maximum visibility. When paired with our innovative clay pigeon throwers, shooters can enjoy both the performance benefits of bright, easy-to-track clays and the peace of mind of sustainable materials.
