Great stage design, would it in South Texas, No problem. I like it when a designer uses different target sizes. Makes the match more interesting and makes the hossiers SLOW DOWN.
Thanks,
Mike

A popper scores power as any off center hit may or may not take it down. One presumes that a major hit will. This is the same as the A zone scored the same, but the off center hits scored lower for minor.

Bart, that was such a fun stage and it was so funny to see Zvi put one in the center of the stripe...:). I hit the center stripe but caught enough of the brown to get my points! I figured it would be safe to aim at the stripe as where I am aiming is probably the safest place on the stage...haha. Kent

We shoot this all the time at our indoor range. Everyone seem to like it. I may try it out side at our club match and see what happens.

That target is more than legit. One of our matches (IDPA perhaps?) had two targets behind "prison bars", which was 5 or so bars vertical bars all the way across the target and the general consensus among the shooters were, "this is hard, but awesome".

Fun to see people dump 10 rounds into two targets to make sure they get the hits.

how about this for a target? I have not got to run a stage with these yet but I will win my MD over yet.

looks like fun to me. If there are a lot of new shooters, I would probably suggest that you use them sparingly, but i don't see any reason to not put out a few of them.

More than 25% of the lower A zone is available.
And, the entire upper A is available.
IMO, legal.
Some people just don't like different.
I do though.

edited for clarity.

I think its interesting for the reasons that you note. Those that index and shoot may think differently but you have to find those sights or be prepared to pay the consequences. For giggles how did that stage go for the complainers?
