The perfect target

Ok, i started like everyone else with tin cans. Decided that i needed a smaller target so, i drilled a golf ball and hung it on a string. Worked great in helping with smaller groups but when hit you never knew where the ball would go. A couple times right back at me. Needed some thing softer. Stole a hollow rubber hockey puck from the grandkids. Better, but still some bounce back. Got this idea to take a tennis ball and drill a hole for string and cut it like an orange. Wala, works great, mo more bounce back and only 3" in diameter, perfect target.

10 to 20 meters, seems indestructible so far, lead balls hit it and fall straight down. Another benefit is that it is very quiet when hit, a dull thud. Might be helpful if you have sensitive neighbors.

That's a good size target for that distance; yesterday I was hitting, practice, plastic golf balls at 10, it's very satisfying.
