Today it is still first — and it has no 
slides or buckles to pinch the leg and 
groove the flesh. Basic patents pro- 
tect you — look for the name E. Z.

or a big-game hunter preparing for a 
hunt, use the following method of aim- 
ing: Bring the tip of the front sight up 
until it just touches the bottom edge of 
the bull’s-eye or tangency. When the 
sights are in this position fire. Any hit 
in the small 8-inch circle, whose center 
is the bottom of the bull’s-eye, is a per- 
fect hit. Any hit in the next ring is a 
good shot, but not perfect. Anything 
outside of that is a miss and you have a 
target that fits all conditions of game 
shooting and target shooting. 
Notice that the black bull’s-eye in this 
system merely gives you a definite point 
at which to aim, but is in no way con- 
cerned with the value of the hit obtained. 
The target shooter can call all hits in 
circle X a five, hits in circle Y a four, 
and if he has put in the three rings he 
can make out his hits valued at three 
and two. This target is not open to any 
serious objection on the part of the 
Simon-pure target shooter, while the tar- 
get now in use can be successfully at- 
tacked from the standpoint of the big- 
game shooter. 
On this target you aim at the bottom 
of the bull’s-eye (at six o’clock), and 
if you get a perfect hit you would strike 
K, the center of the circle X. (Note 
circle X takes in the lower part of black 
bull’s-eye.) The tip of your front sight 
rested at K, your shot struck at K, and 
you have the. perfect combination. In 
other words, you aimed at K and you 
struck K, and not some point from 5 
inches to 13 inches above it. This target 
is simple and practicable and permits one 
to get all the pleasure of target shoot- 
ing, with the added advantage of proper 
preparation for firing against big game. 
The more you fire against this target 
with your hunting rifle the more pro- 
ficient you will he when you come to 
firing against big game. Certainly the 
same cannot be said for the ordinary 
artificial form of target now in use by 
our target shooters. From the figure one 
can easily sec that the center of the 
bull’s-eye is below the center of the 
frame. The point K, the center of the 
circle X, is the center of the frame, and 
rightfully so, since only shots in circle 
X are perfect hits. 
If the hunter has the knack and the 
desire he can trace in circle X the figure 
of any game animal he desires, placing 
it so the sure-kill indicator is just behind 
the shoulder. The outstanding figure, 
however, of this target is that the shooter 
fires against it exactly as he does on 
game, an advantage not to he overlooked 
in these days of scarce game and few 
opportunities to hunt.
