ChampionRange and Target Wobble Base for Clay Pigeon Skeet Throwers - Champion Wheelybird and Freedom Bird

I purchased this wobbler to use with the Champion Work Horse clay pigeon machine. Since the two machines were designed to be paired, assembly and attaching the 2 machines together was relatively easy and they have performed flawlessly together. If you block the wobbler from your view it's impossible to know where the next clay will be thrown. This wobbler has really enhanced the challenge and fun of shooting clays compared to a stationary trap and I would recommend it to anyone wanting one. Just be certain your traps mounting and operating system is a compatible design.

As seen in another review when installing wobbler onto a original WheelyBird to back main mounting bolt is to long to install from top onto handle. When installed from bottom it is too long and interferes and binds with rotation of left to right gear and chain dive. It appeared close so I tried but it would fault motor out it bound so solidly. Quick fix i pulled out and threaded a nut all the way to bolt head then reinstalled and was about perfect standoff allowing clearance to gear chain drive. Other than that small issue pretty easy and quick install. Works great and think variety of throws should make more exciting and hopefully helps improve skills.

Well every house hold should own a drill so I popped out two holes and bad da bing bad da boom we have a wobble with a caddy base. Been using it now for 4 months and it doesn’t skip a beat. Zero problems at all 10/10

I bought the wobbler for my Champion freedom bird trap. Installation was very simple. Take out the 4 bolts from the Champion Freedom bird that is mounted to the cart and add a new wobble base to the cart. The only negative thing I would add is that it adds extra weight to the entire machine to have it lifted in & out of a truck or SUV. Otherwise it is worth every penny to buy this add on feature. Just wish it was a little lighter to lift.

The media could not be loaded. Love the oscillator for Champion trap throwers. The oscillator brings a dimension to shooting skeet and every throw is different than the last. Perfect to practice for the fall dove season. I paired it with a Champion Wheelybird 2.0 with the wireless remote. The unit is very well built - powder coated heavy gauge steel with stainless and aluminum hardware. I am on the coast and store this outdoors - nearly 3 months and not a bit of rust. Out of the box the unit oscillated a bit too fast so I wired a 12v DC motor controller between the battery and the oscillating unit to make the speed completely adjustable. I've passed about 1,300 clays through the machine so far and no issues yet. Highly recommend if you're looking for a new challenge to your trap shooting routine.Video is a close up of the oscillation arm for those looking to narrow the oscillation

Gave it a five star because it works great and is sooo much fun even though it was missing some bolts, the nuts, bolts and washers were just loose in the box and it appeared to have been assembled and disassembled/returned. I ordered it and a workhorse together. If you get them at the same time read the wobbler’s instructions first and there’s several steps assembling the workhorse you can skip (I didn’t and assembled the workhorse then had to disassemble as part of wobbler assembly).

I have this base mounted on a Workhorse trap. I like that the assembly is light enough that I can still carry the trap with wobble base installed by myself, although it's a little awkward. The wide azimuth variation is great for practicing sporting clays, although I can see why a dedicated trapshooter would prefer a narrower azimuth variation like you'd see in American trap. The elevation variation is my only nitpick; at the lowest elevation, if you are shooting slightly uphill or over tall foliage, the clays thrown at this angle will smack directly into the ground/foliage. To avoid this, you'd have to shim up the front of the base so it throws in a more upward trajectory (this may be the case with the Wheelybird base).

The media could not be loaded. I got the wobble kit with a new wheelie bird thrower for Christmas. Having used a manual trap thrower for years makes this setup very fun to use. No more consistent throwing patterns like the manual one did. This launches at all different angles and height. It keeps you on your toes. After shooting it for a little while I could get a good idea which way it would throw by watching it. But I could remedy that by hiding it or putting it behind something to make it less predictable. I definitely look forward to using it more. The wobble kit bolted right on to the wheelie bird thrower. The wobbler comes with its own base with legs that I didn’t need. It also has its own set of clips to connect to the battery. I use a deep cycle marine battery with the thrower and wobbler. Each have their own battery clips. You can also turn the wobbler off and use the thrower without the wobble option. Together they were a bit pricey but it sure beats not having to cock a manual thrower.
