Blame this one on Pacobillie, the punkin' shoot wasn't hard enough for him so he came up with this. :haha:
The target consists of three different sized circles. Inside each of the three circles is another ring, @ one inch smaller in diameter. So, it looks like a snowman or more like three donuts on top of one another. If you PT me with your e-mail address, I will send you a printable target. If you don't have a printer give me your mailing address and I'll send you one already printed.
The target is shot at 50 yards. The shooter has to put one shot completely inside of each circle. The large circle counts for 50 points, the medium circle counts for 75 points, and the small one for 100 points. A shot outside a circle is a 10 point deduction. A shot that cuts the line is a 5 point deduction, a shot partially inside the inner ring is a 10 point bonus, and a shot completely inside the inner circle is a 20 point bonus.
As an added bonus you get the caliber of your rifle added to your score. Larger balls will be harder to keep inside the circles but have the potential for a higher bonus score. Any gamblers?
The target is to be printed on a standard 8.5 x 11 inch sheet of typing/printer paper.
Shoot at each circle until you get a ball completely inside the circle.
No do-overs.
