What is Alien Invasion (Glow in the Dark) Trap Shooting?

Glow in the dark trap shooting takes the familiar clay shooting sport and adds a luminous twist. Instead of regular clay targets, shooters aim at neon clays that glow brightly under black lights. These glowing clays are designed to look like alien spaceships, making the experience feel like a sci-fi battle to save the planet.

This activity takes place outdoors at night equipped with black lights. The neon clays stand out vividly against the dark background, making it easier to track their flight and adding a new layer of excitement to the challenge.

How Alien Invasion Works

The Alien Invasion event offers two main shooting options: trap and 5 stand. Both provide unique ways to engage with the glowing targets.

• Trap Shooting (Explanation of 5 stand here)

In trap shooting, clays are launched from a single machine away from the shooter. The glowing spaceships fly in different directions, and the shooter must react quickly to hit them before they disappear into the night sky.

• 5 Stand Shooting (Explanation of 5 stand here)

The 5 stand option involves five different shooting stations, each with its own set of target presentations. This variety simulates different angles and speeds of alien ships attacking from multiple directions, testing the shooter’s adaptability and precision.

The neon clays are specially made to glow brightly under black lights, ensuring they remain visible even at a distance. This makes the experience accessible for shooters of all skill levels, from beginners to experts.
