In the game of skeet, the shooter shoots from 7 positions
on a semi-circle, and an 8th position halfway between stations
1 and 7. There are two houses that hold machines that launch
the targets, one at each corner of the semi-circle. One
trap launches targets from 10 feet above the ground (the
"high" house) and the other launches it from 3
feet above ground (the "low" house).
At stations 1 and 2 the shooter shoots at single targets
launched from the high house and then the low house, then
shoots a double where the two targets are launched simultaneously.
At stations 3, 4, and 5 the shooter shoots at single targets
launched from the high house and then the low house. At
stations 6 and 7 the shooter shoots at single targets launched
from the high house and then the low house, then shoots
a double. At station 8 the shooter shoots one high target
and one low target.
The shooter must reshoot his first missed target, or if
no targets are missed, must shoot his 25th shell at the
low house station 8.
