chiefbkt Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Was just shooting 2 targets for practice, but decided to put them all out. Makes shooting different yardages so much easier! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 worn my targets out.... only have a bag and a block target now. Rhino block will last forever so will probably get a 3D target next to add to it. probably a competition one built to last. had that Shooter Buck as my last one and it didn't last long at all.... even with field points. I do have a luxury of a club range next door where I can shoot out targets in increments of 10 yards out to 60. Bugs aren't scarce but it's covered. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefbkt Posted August 19, 2015 Author Share Posted August 19, 2015 Shooter buck in its 2nd year, first bag is new, second bag is on its 2nd year, third bag is on its 3rd year. I just rotate them out further the older they get. The yellow one is good at 50 yards and beyond, but any closer and the vanes are getting buried. Almost bought a new shooter buck the other day at Walmart. Have them for $49 plus a $10 mail in rebate. It's a small target but for the money it's a suitable 3D target.

Hock3y24 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Aim small miss small! My backyard has 3 targets from 25 yards 50 yards, I have the wife move them each day so I can estimate distance from my roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know if my wife moves mine she lays them down or puts them sideways. Lucky man... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Seasons Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I setup different angles and practice from a stand. I know it's not possible for everyone but it's good to practice how you play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moog5050 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I have a path mowed in the fields out to 50yds so I can shoot off my deck. Hay bales (for trad) and several Rinehart blocks for compounds. Not surprisingly, I am not the norm in my neighborhood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My neighbors are all retired and I move heavy items for them. They really don't care. I shoot towards and empty field, not towards any houses. have a 20yd range in the basement if it became an issue, but it won't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy K Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I don't trust my neighbors to not throw a fit ,I have been thinking about putting my target in the back of the garage and using the vehicles to conceal my practice time from the neighbors.

chiefbkt Posted August 20, 2015 Author Share Posted August 20, 2015 I shoot from the roof of my carport most of the time. It is pretty flat and gives me enough elevation with the lay of my yard. I'll get a photo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Core Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Nice piece of land for that. Too many houses around me; I can't even fire an air gun in the back yard. We should have moved to Mendon to begin with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
