Clay Sports 2026

Daniel Boone has a proud history of participation with and promotion of Clays Sports. This includes traditional Trap and Skeet, as well as the growing sport of 5-Stand.

Please join us, as all our leagues are open to the public and non-members.

Individual shooters are welcome, as there is no need to be on a team and/or compete in a league to shoot on our scheduled clays nights.

The bar is open on clays nights for sodas, beer, wine, pizzas and other snacks.

Save on costs by purchasing a Pre-Paid Shooting card.

Note:  Prices, nights, activites are all subject to change during clays seasons.

Non-League Shooting

DBCL members can be certified to use clays machines on their own during open club hours as long as there is nothing scheduled on the clays fields.  To get certified, show up on a league night or call a Clays Committee member to schedule instruction.  Once certified, you can buy birds with a credit card from the kiosk in the clubhouse vestibule.
