Fun Targets Any day at the range is always a good day, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways of making that good day a great day. Whether you’re a champion shooter or just a regular Joe wanting to work on precision and have fun, there are definitely targets out there with game themes or targets that are just plain fun to shoot at. Here are a few of those ‘fun targets’. Dartboard Target Darts has always been a fun bar game, now it’s a fun shooting game too. This Dartboard Target is designed specifically for fun on the range, but it will also help improve your shooting skills. The target comes with three games and instructions for keeping score if you’re competing with another shooter. Tic-Tac-Toe Tic-tac-toe is another game you probably aren’t used to playing at the range, but trust me it’s fun and not quite as easy as you would think. While the game uses the same concept as the pen and paper version, it’s a lot more fun and you get some valuable practice out of it—just make sure you hit the right letter. Menace to Society Target Pack Okay, this isn’t a game, per se, but it is fun. The Menace to Society Target Pack comes with 10 target of your most hated dictators and terrorists of the 21st century, ranging from Saddam Hussein to ISIS/ISIL.

Target Stands If you’re not on a standard range, chances are you’ve had to build one, unless you’re planning to shoot into that random object over there—don’t do that, unless you want to spend the rest of your day in the ER because you were too dumb to realize shrapnel isn’t something seen just on the battlefield. If you’re the type to build your own target stand for your range, you can find instructions and a material list for building one here. However, if you’re not the crafty type, or you just suck at basic carpentry—which is perfectly fine—you can always buy your stand. Stands come in various styles, from basic to not so basic, with some made to stand up to anything from an airsoft gun to your rifle. Target practice When it comes to target practice, there’s no practice better than the one that improves your skills. Whether you’re a complete beginner, who’s never touched a gun or you can’t remember the last time you didn’t have a gun in your hand; how you practice matters. The entire point of target practice is to improve—so do that and stop wasting your time just sending bullets down range. Practice with a purpose, use targets that give you variety, require you to think, force you to do something different, and above all make you better. If you’re looking to improve a certain skill, use targets that require you to practice said skill. For example, if you need to practice the essentials, get and Essentials Target. Remember, what’s good for one person may not be what’s good for you, but unless you get out there and find out your strengths and weakness on the range, you’ll never know.
