    An alternative way to hang pigeons.

    So, if you want to shoot clay pigeons at home but don't feel like drilling holes in them, they sell clay pigeon hangers, but they are quite expensive.

    Normally you get 10 of them for $6:

    Instead, if you buy Christmas light clips, you can get 200 of them for $10 or less.

    While this particular kind works great, there are other S clips and things of a similar nature that work also.

    I just staple a string across my cardboard, with staples every foot or so, and then you hang the pigeons in between the staples on the string.

    These are smaller than the Sure Site clips, and so less likely to get shot. 200 of them will probably last you forever.

    I found a roll of stick-on Day-Glow orange "Dots" on Amazon that are almost exactly the same size as a clay. I use these as targets at home. No broken pieces to clean up and you can hit them multiple times. It's always nice to fire a five round string, go downrange, and find 5 holes in your orange dot. Too bad it's usually only 2 or 3.

    Mind? She shoots N-SSA too!

    Sisters? Two, but they're both crazy as a $#!*house rat, so I couldn't, in good conscience, hook you up.
