Tether ball on the swing

(1/8) > >>

Keenan:
 This is an old base ball throwing/hitting screen frame that I decided to have some fun with. A few weeks ago I tied a tether ball on it as a swinging target and took it to our weekly trad shoot. The guys had a real kick with it.
  This afternoon was  shooting at it from 20 yrds while swinging. Hit twice  in a row on one round and finished of with this dead center shot on the last. It's good practice for the moving shots. ;D   Keenan

Keenan, I use something similar. I tie a seed pod from a magnolia to a string hung from a rigid conduit frame to shoot at. Once hit it swings for a moving target. I amaze myself how often I can hit it. I like the smaller target. Aim small, hit small, you know! ;D  Try it with one of your many pine cones. ;)
   Moving targets and flying targets can make for lots of fun and excitement and it is excellent training.

You are so right Pat aim small miss small.  ;) I'm still working hard to get back to where i was befor all the surgeries. amasing what two years of not being able to shoot much has done to the muscles. Hopefully someday I'll be trying to hone in on the golf ball instead of a tether ball.   ;D
  We also have an antelope that I made a cart for. We take turns pulling it along the field with a long rope. While the others shoot at the running antelope ;)

Is that the Neighbors place I see back there...behind the Backstop??? would be a Biotch of one of the Arrows glanced off the Top and went sailing on that way!!! I had to go out one day and cut off an Arrow that missed my Backstop...traveled through my Picket Fence ....across the Alley and into my Neighbors 2x8 Treated Fence....and it went all the way through the Board....had to take a Razor knife and cut it off....before they seen it!!! I put up a Bigger Conveyor Belt Backstop the next day!!!
