The largest trap shooting facility in Pelham NH had to shut down two fields out of eight for the same reason and could no longer handle the number of shooters for the state championship, so the NH state championship was moved to MA of all places. Another club, Farmington, has half a skeet field because some of the stations were determined to be putting shot in a pond.
