DIY Homemade Sporting Clay Rabbit Thrower Trap First Testing - Donnie D

[Donnie D]

Been working on this crude version of my sporting clay rabbit/bird thrower trap, or whatever you would call it. This rig will throw clay rabbits up to about 30 yards and clay birds about 70 yards. Takes about 5 minutes or less to change it from a bird trap to a rabbit trap or back. I'll be posting another vid in a day or two telling why I made it and how, and what I used to make it. I'm gonna have a lot of fun with this thing.

Very cool.

Put a guard around the throwing arm. Wouldn't want your dog getting too close and having it's face ripped off.

 

[Donnie D]

Yep, I am. Not through with it yet, just my first tests. Thanks.

The aluminum chute could be made with Kydex. I like what you have designed.

Your cat sure must not like it!

I had to watch it again! My wife asked what I was laughing about.

Actually she loves it. She loves to chase them. That one clay got a little close for comfort for her. Her sister just hides.

Thanks BP. Actually it is made from a combo of aluminum and tin. That Kydex idea may be a good thing.

This video shows a little of how the clay rabbit thrower I built goes together and how to change it from rabbits to birds and back.
