DARTS

[russellshaffer]

The one I was looking at was about $200 or a little over. Didn't know lasers were that reasonable.

Depends on what you want, a basic B&W laser Brother monochrome laser is cheap.

Looks like even the color printers aren't too bad Office Depot has a basic Brother color for 179.99. Of course I don't know what the page yield is for a color laser.. Probably not as high and more cartridges to buy..

Russel Shaffer; I got your Darts target today! good shootin! I look forward to more targets!

 

[russellshaffer]

With this target a guy can scatter balls all over and turn out OK. Take the good shooting comment with a whole spoonful of salt.

 

[eggwelder]

got my target ready to mail, is taped tears acceptable? was quite snowy up here today, and will have this in the mail by monday

 

[Adui]

As long I can easily determine where the shot hit I dont mind a few tatters.

It was brought to my attention when I started doing these contests that there are some who might like to participate but for one reason or another cannot print the targets.

So, in the interest of adding members I will make the following offer:

For so long as I am able, if you want to participate you can send me a self addressed and stamped envelope. I will print you a target using my black and white laser printer and send it to you in your envelope.

Anyone who wants to do this needs to get the envelope to me early in the month so you will have time to shoot it and send it back.

I might point out though; the cost of that SASE is more than it would cost you to go to a public library and use their computer / printer. (Mine costs like 10 +/- cents a page.) Of course, if you live several miles from the library or other printing service, once you add gas and postage, it would be cheaper to send me the SASE and its certainly more convenient.

PK, I recieved your target today. Thanks for shooting!

 

[Juice Jaws]

Shot darts today, will put target in mail tomorrow. Thanks for taking time to put this on.

 

[Ames]

Well, I got as far as printing the target today. Think I can get 'er shot by the end of the week.
This will prove interesting.

 

[Juice Jaws]

Its a small target at 25 yards. Found out I shoot darts like I throw darts, all over the board.

:hatsoff: Ahhh.. I see Im in good company!

 

[Ames]

Well, if you think that's small.
Official dart rules would put you at 7' 9 1/4" away from the target. At that distance the patch may blow back and hit you! :haha: :rotf: :haha:

Only the Brits would come up with a distance of 7' 9 1/4". We just throw from the 8 foot line.

I love Friday the 13th. My new favorite. Went out to shoot my darts target today. Kind of windy, but I have the next six days with worse things forecast.
Oh, I got a target for ya'. :stir: :shocked2: Target in the mail tomorrow.

 

[Dave Marsh]

Mine is in the mail. Tried my .62 caliber smoothbore with a roundball. First time with that gun.

[Maven]

I need to get this done too, Dave. Unfortunately the weather hasn't been especially welcoming lately. Odd isn't it, when you've got the time, the weather sucks or, great weather, but other commitments.

Adui, the Dart Board is in the mail with only two holes. I was doing pretty good until the hang fire on my flintlock ruined it. Look closely at the top edge of the center of the paper and you will see where I nicked it. That happens. Good luck to the rest of the shooters.
I am riding in a county wide bike race for the next four Saturdays so today was the day.

 

[Dave Marsh]

Paul, you are certainly correct on the weather. I have one more contest to shoot this month and the extended forecast is terrible. We'll see.

Awesome, thank you for your honesty! I look forward to receiving the target.
