Considerations & Trade-offs
- The 1-inch and 3-inch options are intended for different uses, so choosing the right size depends on your target type and backing material.
- Paper-based targets typically require four TargetTacks to hold properly, and larger targets may need additional tacks to reduce wind movement.
- Performance depends on the substrate and covering used, so fit and holding needs can vary across cardboard, foam, straw, and other backers.
- Instructions and warnings should be reviewed before each use, which adds a step for safe setup and disposal.
