## What to Expect
5-Stand is a compact version of [sporting clays](/handbook/sporting-clays). Shooters fire from five fixed stations (cages) while targets are launched from six to eight machines at different angles, speeds, and elevations. Each station presents a different combination of targets, keeping the challenge varied.
