Two throwing machines at different heights launch a series of 25 targets in a specific order, some as singles and some as doubles, with the shooter having a fixed position between them. Men`s competitions consist of five such series, while women`s have three. The top six competitors shoot an additional series as a final round, on targets filled with special powder to show hits more clearly to the audience.
