    We used the "backwards falling poppers", Popper falls backwards onto a "seesaw" (only way I can describe it) which has a clay sitting on the other end which then flys into the air and you attempt to shoot it (well most people attempted to shoot it but very few got it). you need to pad the end of the lever the popper hits so the impact does not pre-break the clay.

    I was going to modify a popper so when you shot the it it would activate a proper trap to throw a proper target but never got round to it before I gave it away
    Does that make sense??
