I used a PARD electronic scope to shoot an Ultimate Field Target match last weekend. At the beginning of each lane I hit record so that I could stitch them together, the intent being to create a video to give folks an idea of what field target is like. While field target isn't much of spectator sport, hopefully this 23 minute video will give anybody considering attending a match the push to get out there and compete.
There are some fun targets in the mix, things like a poop emoji, beta fish, Elmo, bears, beavers, owls, cowboy, etc.
The yardages listed before each lane were the distances marked on the lane markers. The built in rangefinder on the PARD was a couple yards off here and there.
In "regular" field target (sub 20fpe and max of 55 yards) the distances are not given and electronic rangefinding devices are not allowed. But this version (Ultimate Field Target) allows them.
In all versions of field target, no sighters are allowed after the start of the match. It is a game where trajectory validation prior to the match is REQUIRED if the shooter intends to be competitive.
I used a BRK Ghost, shooting the NSA .20/18.9grain slugs for this match.
As all field target matches are, it was a hoot to shoot and I hope you enjoy it and maybe even decide to come try it for yourself.
