Competitors shoot at a paper target that has two circles in the middle and 10 scoring rings on the outside borders. The bull's-eye in each is a small white circle about the size of a ballpoint pen mark. Competitions usually last four to six hours, with targets set up 10 to 50 meters away. The boys shoot standing 60s. Events are timed, and shooters are allowed two minutes per shot.
Players also shoot in both prone and kneeling positions.
You shoot at them to adjust your sights, then shoot at the bulls around the outside when the competition begins. We practice a lot. The National Guard unit across the street from the high school set up a range for us, and we practice there after school two hours each day. The sport is expensive. McHenry said the kids do not pay for a thing and that everything is furnished.
