Any thoughts on standardizing long range steel targets for 3GN matches, at either championships / partner matches / club matches?
The Southeast Regional offered blaze orange steel that was not necessarily easy to hit, but was easy to SEE. It allowed the competitors to focus on SHOOTING targets, not SPOTTING targets. I hope the days of dull grey steel on a dark drown berm, in the shade, and nearly invisible to the naked eye is over. Blaze orange rocks! |

I don’t see any such thing as standardizing, to many of the Outlaw matches ( most 3 Gun matches are Outlaw,, ) have their own rules and ways of doing things, AND those matches fill up to waiting list only, The day after it is announced, So they have no reason to change the way they are doing things. I do see, or can’t find the problem you’re talking about,, The best solution I see is a bright color backer set up behind the target. And painting the target black. |

Personally, I don't have a problem with the extra challenge. I think it makes it more interesting.

It truly makes a statement about what people think of 3 Gun Nation Rule set. I would love to see some kind of standers, but its hard to jump on board with rules like "Any two hits" All 3 of the clubs I shoot 3 gun at have some kind of scoring system. |

3GN regional matches are all going to use similar targets. Eventually the other matches will follow suit as competitors demand a better match as result.
