Through necessity, Clay must put himself on the same playing field as the killer.
So it only makes sense that Amanda break in on Clay and a local waitress having sex, and plug both the waitress and the water bed full of lead.

Some companies advertised that their glass balls were made of more uniform thickness than others, therefore they could be made thinner and would break more easily.

 SPLICEDwire: "Clay Pigeons" review
To make room for Vaughn's larger-than-life character, Phoenix gives a subtly comic performance as he begins to panic over the arrival of a sardonic FBI agent (Janeane Garofalo) looking into what seems to be a rash of foul play deaths and disappearances in the area.
But like Phoenix, she's also very understated about it, letting Vaughn's loose cannon cowboy drive the movie.
But in "Clay Pigeons," with a swagger, a wink and a wicked grin, he turns a likely multiple-murdering cowboy into the most appealingly smarmy lady-killer since Jack Nicholson in "The Witches of Eastwick."

 [No title]
In the sport of clay pigeon shooting targets (known as"clay pigeons"or"clays") are flung into the air by a launching device (known as a"trap") and a participant in the sport attempts to shoot the moving target using a shotgun.
The fact that the clay pigeons, if not hit or if only glancingly hit, leave large sized debris means that the material of the clay pigeons resists degradation for some time.
Ideally a clay pigeon should disintegrate even if hit by just one shot.

 Review: Clay Pigeons
Soon, they're on a fishing trip together, and, instead of catching the big one, they find a plastic-wrapped body.
Meanwhile, a drifter by the name of Lester Long (Vince Vaughn) wanders into town, and he and Clay bond over a few beers and a game or two of pool.
For a while, Clay Pigeons looks like it's going to be a humdinger of a mystery/thriller, the kind of thing that Hitchcock or John Dahl (Red Rock West, Rounders) would be proud of.

 'Clay Pigeons': Meanwhile, Half-Crazed at the Local Pool Hall ...
Vaughn's Lester is part shambling charmer, part lunatic, and you're never sure when he's suddenly going to erupt into a monster.
Horrified at Amanda's callousness, Clay rebuffs her when she puts the moves on him.
The film, written by Matt Healy and directed by Dobkin in an ostentatiously hip style that undercuts sentimentality or melodrama, is really a character-driven shaggy-dog story whose point may be that there is no point.

 Film & TV: Ashes To Ashes (Tucson Weekly . 10-12-98)
After I left the theater, I had a tough time figuring out what exactly made this movie so dissatisfying, since it had many of the elements of Pulp Fiction; and everybody seemed to like Pulp Fiction, though personally I can't remember it.
He is so distraught that he's going to kill himself, but before he does it Earl makes sure Clay understands that he has cleverly planned his suicide so that it will appear that Clay has murdered him.
Clay is supposed to be "innocent," in this situation, and everybody keeps saying what a nice boy he is. The role seems to call for a Jimmy Stewart or Cary Grant--one of Hitchcock's wrongfully accused heroes.

 Stalking the Ferocious Clay Pigeon - New York Times
I reckon when your wife wants to shoot a gun, it's best to take her someplace where she can point it at something other than you.
Roughly nine million of those people, including my wife, participate in sporting clays, a bloodless sport that aims to simulate hunting but with disk-shaped clay pigeons substituted for live game.
Sporting clays is often called "golf with a shotgun." Unlike skeet and trap, in which clay pigeons are released from one or two fixed sites, sporting clays requires the shooter to move along a naturally or artificially landscaped course with anywhere from 5 to 20 stations.

 NAR : 2 movie reviews
Instead of focusing on the intriguing Id/Ego dynamic between Lester and Clay, director David Dobkin tries to amuse you by waving a lot of unlikely and lurid violence in your face.
These two currently omnipresent actors have teamed up once again for the who-hasn't-dunnit comedy "Clay Pigeons." They play a pair of unlikely friends, Clay (Phoenix) and Lester (Vaughn), one of whom is tragically unlucky, and the other, shamelessly charming but morally questionable.
Her entrance marks a grounding of the dialogue and the plot at large, and sends Clay Pigeons into a gear that may have helped it avoid the over-the-top and often misogynist cliches of many so-called "dark" comedies.

It was given the name of SPORTING, and the first British Open Sporting Championship was held in London in 1927.
Unwittingly, the same time period also marked a time of change; the first clay target, a flat disc, appeared between 1883 and 1887.
Sporting has of course developed hugely since those days and is now by far the most popular clay target discipline in England, though it has only been in the last 10 years that it has really caught on in a big way.

 'Clay Pigeons'
As Clay, Phoenix may manifest every so often a glimmer of intelligence that even his Neanderthal eyebrows can't hide, but that speaks less to the problematic nature of his casting than to the age-old truism that some people are simply not as dumb as they look.
As the oily Lester, Vaughn oozes the glib charm of the psychopath, and the impossibly vampish Cates, writhing and purring like a sack of flesh-colored Flubber, is deliriously over the top.
First he denies it (badly), then admits that Amanda has been cheating on Earl with him, then he begs for his life.
