Skeet shooting, like playing tennis in stilettos, requires quick reflexes, demands excellent aim, and destroys a lot of clay. Pulverize pottery with today's Groupon: for $20, you get a clay target-shooting excursion (up to a $44.94 value, including sales tax) at St. Louis Skeet & Trap Club in Pacific. The excursion includes:

• 50 targets for sporting clays, skeet, bunker, trap, or five-stand (up to a $22 value)
• Ear protection (a $0.50 value)
• A shotgun rental (a $5 value)
A T-shirt (a $14 value)

Ammunition is not included in this Groupon; it may be brought from home or purchased on-site (around $7.12 per box of 25).

Nestled in a quiet country setting, St. Louis Skeet & Trap Club fills the air with the blasts of gunslingers honing their accuracy on nine trap and skeet fields, in addition to three international skeet fields, a sporting clays field, and a five-stand field. Sublimate long-standing hatred of fine china by eradicating clay pigeons in skeet shooting, or take aim at sporting clays from one of 12 shooting stations, where solo shooters can take advantage of time-delay throwers. The trap fields' voice-activated throwers launch discs with nearly twice the efficiency of older models. Though the range's hours differ by day, patrons can slay clay pigeons Wednesday and Thursday evenings on well-lit skeet and trap-shooting fields in order to fit target practice around their schedule or prepare for a nighttime invasion of UFOs.
