It still is but with clay pigeons. Penny Smith won a dirty gold medal for us.
While it’s probably not on to kill animals at the Olympics, I reckon there would be interest in events like sheep shearing, rabbit skinning and wood chopping. We might do OK ?
It’s quite poor of the IOC not recognise the original pigeon shooting. Trap shooting is really just an evolution of the original “sport” … and pigeons are a feral species and pest throughout much of their range.
