Skeet shooting

What is skeet shooting?

Developed to improve hunting in the field, skeet shooting has since become a competitive sport because of its increasing popularity. Participants shoot from eight separate stations at crossing-pattern targets as opposed to the five-station outgoing targets of trap.

Skeet is the discipline to choose for those looking to improve their wingshooting skills, compete at a high level, or just to have an all-around good time with family and friends.

For more information, come to Vendor Building 3, Suite 310, or call 618-295-2332.

Check the calendar for shooting days, registered shoots, fundraisers, and walk-up weekends.
