Target Shooting Safety Practices for Beginners



With nearly two decades of experience as a physician, Dr. John Won serves as an oral surgeon in private practice at POMS Facial Surgery. When he is not busy with his duties as an oral surgeon, John Won enjoys target shooting.

The sport of target shooting includes several disciplines, such as practical rifle, practical shotgun, and clay shooting. Safety is an aspect that remains imperative in any target shooting practice mainly because it involves using projectiles and firearms. For instance, shooters should only authorized targets like cardboard paper, clay, and other safety-rated targets but never target plastic, metal, or electric components. Targets in the ground level should always have a proper backstop to reduce the chances of ricocheting and potentially harming people or animals.

The firearm should be kept unloaded until the moment of use and keep the finger off the trigger guard. If the climate is hot and windy, it is best to avoid engaging in target practice near dry vegetation.
