Trap, the event in which Neeru and Kynan Chenai won gold, belongs to which family of shooting?
- A.Rifle
- B.Pistol
- C.Shotgun
- D.Crossbow
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is shotgun. Trap is one of the shotgun events, in which clay targets are flung away from the shooter at speed and at shifting angles, leaving very little time to swing the gun on and fire. Option A, rifle, and option B, pistol, are the two other competitive shooting families, and both are fired at fixed targets from a set distance, so neither describes trap. Candidates mix them up because all three appear on the same Asian Games shooting programme. Option D, crossbow, is not part of the Asian Games shooting programme at all and belongs to a separate sport. In the mixed team version of trap, one woman and one man from the same country shoot as a pair and their scores are added, which is the format in which the Indian pair took gold with an Asian Record in the final.
