OK, here goes. In the early days of skeet, the birds were thrown straight across the field, rather than at the angle they are thrown at today. The birds and pieces were aimed right at the opposite house and consequently, the shooter. The board protected the shooter from being hit by the birds and pieces from the opposite house. When "something" is headed his way, the shooter could step aside behind the board.

The one on the high house I don’t see as a hindrance but the one on the low house I’d probably pitch a bitch about when shooting from station six .
