Caldwell Claymore PullPup: Handheld Clay Target Thrower with Dual Grip Safeties & Adjustable Spring Tension

Compact, handheld power for clay shooting

Meet the Caldwell Claymore PullPup, a compact handheld target thrower that delivers traditional range performance in a palm-sized package. It can launch standard, midi, and mini targets over 55 yards, offering reach comparable to larger throwers on a typical range. The design emphasizes control with built-in dual grip safeties and an open-front profile that makes target clearing quick, clean, and tool-free. A target clip helps secure targets for angled shots, while the overall form stays portable enough for easy trips to the line.

On-the-fly angle testing with handheld control

The handheld form isn’t just about portability; it enables agile practice. A simple pull lets you adjust the target angle on the fly, testing timing and trajectory as you work through drills. The open-front design means broken targets can be removed quickly without disassembly, reducing downtime between reps.

• Handheld operation allows quick angle and line changes for diverse drills.
• Target clip on the arm secures targets for off-center or angled shots.
• Dual grip safeties help keep hands clear of the arm during throws for safer practice.

Adjustability, targets, and distance

With adjustable spring tension, you can tailor the throw to target size—from standard to midi to mini. Distances can exceed 55 yards under favorable conditions and setup, letting you pace practice toward your goals without bulky gear.

• Supports standard, midi, and mini targets to vary drills.
• 55+ yard potential for longer-range practice on larger fields.

Durability, portability, and warranty

Designed for frequent range use, the PullPup’s compact footprint keeps up with travel and on-site storage. It’s backed by Caldwell’s limited lifetime warranty, offering added reassurance as you train.

Whether solo or in a small group, the PullPup adds practical versatility to a range trip without the bulk of larger throwers. Real-world shooters note smoother rhythm and more controlled target cycles when practicing with a handheld thrower, though results can vary by setup and technique.
