. I ran a steel coated cable through my catchbox to hang targets. I'm fairly sure this is nothing new, but it's fun. The zip ties are easy to install, and come in several colors widths and lengths.

Great idea, Tag! I like it!

Do you use the zip ties as targets?

Thanks Tag! I am always looking for target ideas.

Yes, I use zip ties for targets. I cut the zip ties to various lengths. I’m not sure what they would call my attention span, but I have to have several types of targets, that are easily changed.

Good idea Tag, I like it. Definitely going to have to try these

Hey, nice idea, Tag!

Might try putting a paper target sticker on the end of one, too!

Good idea KawKan

You might try dipping the tip in a bright paint to give you a little aiming spot. Good idea...If I were only a good enough shot to hit them!

Love the idea TAG! I too suffer from SSSSAS (Sling Shot Shooter's Short Attention Span) and having a bevy of targets is a great way to stay focused. I don't use a catchbox much, but I do like the idea of having a little shooting range with zip ties and different sized stickers/cards attached. I'm with GG though, don't think I'd be able to hit them at this point.

You're a problem solver, Tag!

I figure it can’t hurt to shoot at small targets, it doesn’t cost any more to miss as it does to hit the target. At my age it’s a race against the clock to see how accurate I can get with a slingshot before eyesight deteriorates. Slingshots is the only sport I have ever participated in that I no longer get upset with myself.
