AUTOMATED SPORTS TARGET SYSTEM
20210325154 · 2021-10-21 ·

This present disclosure is directed to a movable target system intended for sports and activities. Two vertical support members are coupled with a target to create the system. The target is coupled to four component housings, located on the vertical support members, that contain an electric motor and processor that controls movement. Two target sensors are positioned in the system; one coupled to the target, and the other coupled to a vertical support member are used to detect movement through the target and between the two vertical support members. A database of positions loaded onto the processor that have corresponding decision weights for each position. The positions are selected by either the stationary randomizer function or the moving target randomizer function. Shooting statistics are recorded and used to update the target position database decision weights to challenge the user.

System for portable and safe shooting targets
11041699 · 2021-06-22 ·

Systems and methods are disclosed for a shooting target with improved portability and safety over existing devices. The target uses a pin system for storing the legs, which are easily removed and used to form a base. In addition, accessories are described for a shooting target system and method such as a wheel base, side targets, a swinging “dueling target” system, and “popper” side targets.

Self Leveling Target Holder
20230408229 · 2023-12-21 ·

A rocking target holder for target shooting has a rocking base which supports a target mount thereon. The rocking base will move rearward in a direction away from a projectile impact upon the target mount. The rocking motion provides two functions. First, it positions the target mount substantially upright when the target holder is located on an uneven support surface. Secondly the rocking motion provides shock absorption upon the impact of a projectile with the target mount.
