Bi State offers all the most popular shotgun disciplines.

  Clay target shooting, also known as clay pigeon shooting, is the art of shooting a firearm at special flying targets, known as clay pigeons or clay targets.

   The terminology commonly used by clay shooters often relates to times past, when live-pigeon competitions were held. Although such competitions were made illegal in the UK in 1921, a target may still be called a "bird", a hit may be referred to as a "kill", and a missed target as a "bird away"; the machine which projects the targets is still known as a "trap".

   Clay pigeon shooting has at least 20 different forms of regulated competition called disciplines, although most can be grouped under the main headings of trap, skeet, and sporting.

Bi State Sportsman's Association is one of the few clubs that offer all of the most popular disciplines. Bi State also hosts events sanctioned by the ATA and NSSA the events are open to any participant that is a member in good standing of either governing body.
