Found this image from 1930 of a shoot at the Takapuna Gun Club, Barry's Point, which is across the bay from Auckland

[Linked Image from photos.smugmug.com]

The shooters are lined up on a walk-way maybe 16 yards from a barrier, with some sort of netting just past the trap? There is something round on the other side of the stream but it's too small to be a pigeon ring fence, and the single walk-way looks like no trap lay-out I've seen. An early clay target pigeon "sporting clay"?
