This reminds of me of a very scary moment. While shooting in an ATA trap shoot at Pelham NH in the '90's when trap boys were still in use. Pelham had a red light on the back of the trap house that the trap boy could activate at any time. That signaled the squad to cease shooting and safe guns.
In the middle of a round I readied myself for shot. I hold low gun just below the forward edge of the roof. I called pull and instantly the trap boys head appeared above my bead. He never activated the light. I don't remember why he needed to come out of the house, but I missed the next three birds because I was so shaken up by it.
