Normally, the club shoots trap and skeet.
Trap is an event that involves shooting at flying clay pigeons, each four inches in diameter, from five adjacent stations. The clay pigeons are thrown from an underground bunker.
Skeet involves shooting at double clay targets, which are thrown at least 65 meters form a high--10-feet-tall--or low--three-feet-tall--house on either side of the range.
Once the target is released, a shooter has between one and five seconds to shoot the target, which is traveling 40 to 50 mph.
"Once you see the target 30 yards away form you, nothing goes through your mind," says Randy Karger '99, who is the former president of the club. "It's exciting once you hit the target."
Even if these specific shooting terms forever remain foreign to most Harvard students, Jobin and Burwell hope people understand the nature of what they do.
"It's a sport," Jobin says.
