Effective Range Targets

The science behind our Patented Target System enables anyone to easily and accurately determine their effective hunting range for specific game animals based on individual grouping ability.

Not just another paper target ... One Shot Confidence.

We consider Effective Range the maximum distance a hunter can
expect to confidently execute a one shot, humane harvest.

What folks are saying ...

"After 10 strong years, our outfitting company has only gotten better after implementing the ERT System in '19. Along with emphasizing real world shooting practice and requiring an individual hunter assessment using ERTs, we’ve seen an over 25% decline in wounded or missed animals!

... Big thanks to Effective Range Targets!"

"I am proud of my daughter, and the memories from our hunt together will last a lifetime. A 265 yard shot on a pronghorn and a clean kill for your first big game animal is impressive. I don't think either one of us would have known she was capable of such a long shot, and I highly doubt she would have even attempted the shot without our preparation with Effective Range Targets."

"True shooting ability can be squirrely to assess, but the ERT system easily provides a no sh*t evaluation that should be a standard procedure before taking to the field. The inherent competition with friends is a great motivator and the ability to quickly and effectively assess different weapon systems, equipment, and shooting positions at the range is invaluable."
