Shooting games on electronic targets

Post by Jsjbcoll »

Our season is over and we will be having a fun shoot for our athletes. Does anyone have fun drills or games that they use with their shooters on electronic targets? If so could you please share? Thanks!

Here are two decent games:

"HORSE" or "DOG" (or any name) depending on number of shooters and time available. Shot kinda like a final (Load, Start, after 1 minute, Stop).
After each series of shots, lowest score (decimal) shooter gets a letter. When each shooter spells out the name they are out until you only have the winner remaining.

"3 and out" or "5 and out" depending on time available and how closely matched shooters are. Can be shot like a final or let pairs of shooters work out timing between themselves.
Pair shooters by skill level. After each pair has shot, they tell each other what the score of the shot was (decimal). Higher score shooter gets a point, after second shot if the shooter that won the last shot wins again he gets another point if he lost he loses his first point (goes back to zero). Thing to remember is winner of each shot only gets a point if his opponent is at zero, otherwise his opponent loses a point instead. First one to 3 or 5 wins. If you have two closely matched shooters and play "5 and out" it can take a LONG time to have a winner as they will keep going back and forth.
