“Two 40-ft. towers have been erected to sail out clay ducks for the hunter in a blind below. For the quail, pheasant and partridge hunter, the store has built a 1,000-ft. fairway lined with corn shocks and rail fences. As the hunter stalks along, an accompanying ‘triggerman’ follows him, releasing fast-flying clay birds that simulate the flights of the different game birds.”
