Range and Target 40901 High FlyString Release Manual Trap, Multi

Again it arrived in time and did everything it said it would.

For the price, it does exactly what it should. When launching 2 at a time, it is a little less reliable. The 2 clays go completely different trajectories, but still launch well enough you can hit both if you are quick enough.

Most of these throwers are basically the same, if you put it together right and set it up right they work fine, if you don't, you are in for a bad time. It took about 5 minutes to assemble properly (yup, even with directions and pictures I managed to put one of the parts on backwards and used the wrong bolt inside the spring). The main thing I can say is the unit needs to be stable to do its best work. I was using it alone with my foot on the back for stability which didn't work well at first, the unit jumped every time I pulled the cord and how much it moved dictated how bad the clay flight was. Then I moved over so that the front legs were hooked on a concrete parking barrier and I was standing with my foot on the back leg. Not only did it start working flawlessly. In fact, with every throw the legs dug themselves a little deeper into the gravel parking lot that I had been unable to stomp them down into at all making the unit more accurate and more consistent. After the first few awkward pulls of the cord with my hand I started standing on a fairly taught cord with my right foot and using my left foot that i had on the back of the thrower for stability to step on the string between the eyelet and trigger to release the clay. After a few minutes of that, I decided the foot 'pull' was the way to go so (as you can see in the pictures) i wrapped the string around the angle iron and now it works like a pedal. It threw consistent singles and doubles all day. The only clay it broke was one that slid out the back when I put my foot on the thrower before the legs properly set into the gound (I was using the highest angle)

Great for beginners, works perfectly with 1 clay 2 fly not so great but great value for price

Had one years ago. This feels just as sturdy. Kids unwrapped it Christmas morning, along with their new .410 semi-auto. Took about 15 minutes to assemble thrower. No issues. We went outside and within two or three shots, the kids were turning those clay pigeons into so much dust. The thrower is consistent, which is important when teaching new trap shooters. You want to know where that clay is going so the shooter can predict its flight path. As i set the clay in the arm, i knew exactly where i was about to send it. That condistency is key. It throws doubles just as well. Just put a few more turns into the spring to account for the added weight. Path and separation very consistent. After a couple doubles, the kids were asking for two every time and they were busting them. Im really happy with this thrower.

It throws clay so I don't have to. Do you know how fast you have to be to throw then pick up your weapon and still have time to hit it ?? I walked up and shot them on the ground later. Don't call me a poor sport.
