Clay pigeons are one of the few reactive targets that many ranges will allow shooters to use. But, anyone who's ever tried to use them on a range knows that they can be nearly impossible to hang in a way that is acceptable to the club, that doesn't risks damaging the target stands. There is really no fast and easy way of hanging them where they don't fall off due to wind or get knocked off by pieces of other clay pigeons when they get hit.

On media day I came across a company called Down Range Fab that makes some novel hangers that actually clip to the edge of the clay pigeon and hold them securely. They can be attached to target boards even one over top of the other, and the lower ones will not get knocked down when the ones above them get hit. They can be hung or even stuck in the ground to look like lolipops.

They come in bags as small as 25 or in bulk (1000+).

Or with an old skid and a few drywall screws I can, (and have), make the same thing.

Not all of us can haul around a pallet to the range. And said pallets can wind up in the burn pile if someone out of the know is at cleanup day. And it still has to be suspended from the boards at some ranges.
