Therefore, follow the tips below to get better at shooting the clay pigeons:
Shoot One First:
The most difficult thing that most of the players go through while shooting a clay pigeon is that they do not know where the clay pigeon will go. Meaning that they have no idea how high the clay pigeon will go and where it will land. This can make them miss the shot. You need to be quick when you are shooting the clay pigeons as other players might be around and may come towards you by hearing so many shots that you will be firing to hit one clay pigeon. Therefore, it is always better if you first shoot a clay pigeon and see where it is going and how high it is going. You can then aim in that direction and shoot the clay pigeon accordingly. This will save your bullets and will increase your chances of hitting one.

Don’t Use Sniper:
This is important. You should keep in mind that a sniper rifle will not work best in case of shooting clay pigeons. And not just the sniper rifle, but other weapons that require serious accuracy.

This is because when you shoot a clay pigeon, you will not have much time to make an aim and shoot the clay pigeon. It will fall on the ground in that time. Therefore, what you should do instead is to use weapons that you can use to spray bullets with. These weapons include SMG, Assault Rifle or Shotgun.

They will allow you to fire without making much effort on accuracy and you can just send a shot or two to the direction of the clay pigeon to deliver a hit.
Get Help From Ally:
This is another thing that you should be looking for if you want to save your time is to let someone else interact with the clay shooter and you just concentrate on shooting it. You can do this in squads and duos where you can ask your partner to start the clay shooter and you start there waiting for the clay pigeon to go in the air so you can shoot it. This will save you the time it would’ve taken you to first interact with the clay shooter and then coming back and making the aim and shooting the clay pigeon. It will also make it a little less challenging for you to shoot the clay pigeon as you will already be in the shooting position.
