How to improve target shooting

Post by wittmeba »

I finally figured out how to improve my target shooting.

- Shoot 5 shots at cardboard
- Place a Target Bulls-eye over the center of the group
- Tape the target to the cardboard
- Push a pencil through the target in each hole

You are good to go :)

Good tip. You can keep a couple packs of these on hand for the days you're shooting steel. :whistle:

Not to mention all the wear and tear on your target stands and chains. :whistle:

It's much more fun to spend a weekend at an Appleseed. The 2016 schedule is here:

I've been wanting to attend an Appleseed, ever since I found out that it existed. One day, I will have both the time and the money simultaneously, and can go.

I've also been wanting to take all of the classes that Jim offers.
