Benefits of technology

The disclosed archery target stand offers a unique solution for adjusting the height, orientation, and stability of the target. It consists of two vertical supports with a platform attached at the top. The platform has a non-skid surface for added stability. The stand also includes base members for free-standing support and an elastic retaining means for securing targets of various sizes.

Problems solved by technology

The methods and means for presenting a target to the practicing archer are legion and limitless.
The Allen positioning system, while similar to the instantly disclosed target stand, lacks the stability and resulting attributes of the instantly disclosed target stand.

Embodiment Construction

[0011]All elements of the disclosed target stand 10 are readily apparent from FIG. 1. Essentially, the stand comprises a pair of vertical supports 12, or legs, which serve to elevate and support a platform 16 on which a target 15, typically a block or cube-style target, is positioned. The platform 16 is planar and typically rectangular in shape and preferably features a non-skid surface 17 on which the target is situated and secured. The platform is adjustably attached to and supported by the vertical supports with easily removable fasteners 20, such as pull pins, positioned in holes in the platform (not shown) and alignable with a plurality of holes 21 in the vertical supports 12. The vertical supports 12 are typically parallel. They have proximal and distal ends and are positioned and adjustably attached to the platform on diametrically opposed sides of the platform. Typically, the platform is positioned generally midway between the proximal and distal ends of the vertical support...

Abstract

An archery target stand having a pair of vertical supports adjustably attached to a horizontal platform, an elastic retaining means for securing block targets to the platform and a pair of base members adjustably attached to the distal ends of the vertical supports to provide axial adjustment for the target is easily transported to the range or into the field to offer a safe, secure and accurate target shooting experience.

Description

FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE [0001]This disclosure relates generally to the sport of archery and specifically to a target stand for supporting and stabilizing targets, and in particular, block-style or cube-type archery targets. The disclosed target stand features an adjustable stabilizing strap, a high-friction, non-skid platform supported by a pair of T-style legs that are adjustable to allow the platform, and the suspended or supported target, to be moved in four directions.[0002]Block-style targets can, of course, be positioned directly on the ground, but that does not replicate the height of a deer, the most common prey of bow hunters. The purpose of practicing with an inanimate target is, of course, to develop good shooting form and muscle memory. Thus, it is reasonable to assume that deer hunters should practice shooting at a target with the same height as deer vitals to develop accuracy and muscle memory. By fostering accuracy and muscle memory, the disclosed target stand instill...
