I don't see it, Terry. Right below PowWow I have Highlights 2025. A search finds older threads from the Shooter's Forum.

Quote from: Ryan Rothhaar on March 10, 2026, 08:35:39 PMAn unmarked larger target like a paper plate is fantastic hunting practice. You need to learn to shoot at the center of something not marked. That is exactly how I shoot animals- I shoot at the center of an area (chest). Guys talk about "picking a hair"... well I've never seen that to work. In the pressure of the situation I want to shoot to the center of an "area". It's way easier to practice with a small aiming mark on the target like a little dot, than it is to learn to shoot to the middle of a larger unmarked area.  But the deer I hunt don't seem to have little red dots painted on their chests.  :biglaugh:

Yep, years ago I used brown construction paper for that very same reason, centering. 1 sheet - 1 shot then replace.

Quote from: frassettor on March 10, 2026, 01:14:08 PMIn your all's opinion, what is the diameter of the whitetail, black bear and hog vitals?


I would say that an 8" paper plate is a pretty good representation of those vitals in my humble opinion.

I've been shooting at these practice, plastic golf balls. They are small and inexpensive. They hold up really well when shot and the holes make them easy to hang.

I started with paper plates almost 50 years ago. I used to take a marker and put a dot in the center about the size of a dime for a bullseye. Good times.
