Shotgun Patterns for Turkey Shoots

Patterning your gun

Patterning your gun will keep the shot groupings more consistent for turkey shoots. The sample turkey shoot targets shown are at 50 feet with a 36' barrel and Federal top gun 9's. They give the best example of how to get your patterns on target, why the pattern moves and the best way to control it.

The most basic of shooting skills is also one of the easiest, once you know how. Some of my buddies use paper plates and a magic marker or ball point pen dot for practice and patterning their guns. Contact us about placing an order for our 6"x6" turkey shoot targets for your Turkey Shoot or practicing.
