What’s different between springing teal and crow targets?

Clay pigeon shooting
JOHN BIDWELL says:
You raise an interesting point here because, generally, both targets are thrown at a steep angle often offering a shot as they reach their apex, or as they start to drop.

It would be interesting to hear readers’ comments on this – but in my book a springing teal is a target (like the real thing) that rises quickly in front, or slightly to one side, of the shooter and flies away from the shooting position.

The fact that it might come back towards the shooter when it drops is of no matter.

On the other hand, a crow target is one thrown from in front of the stand so that it presents itself as either an incoming dropper or one that’s thrown almost vertically, showing its underbelly to the shooter rather than its back, as in the case of a teal.

Typical of this is a target that shows itself briefly to the shooter as it clears the top of a tree before curling to the left or right as it loses power and begins to drop.

So which of you gets the free pint..?
