​know your effective range distance in five shots

​The Determinator Effective Range System reveals your true effective-ethical range so you can hunt with confidence and integrity.

WHO DOESN'T WANT THAT?
                       How you hunt matters!
FIND MY EFFECTIVE RANGE

How Determinator Targets work:

  1. Set up to shoot at 100 yds
  2. Shoot 5 rounds aiming at the bullseye from the same HUNT SHOOTING POSITION. Many Hunters practice off a bench and then miss in the field
  3. Score the ring that all 5 shots are within (this ring identifies your EFFECTIVE RANGE (for that animal and that hunt shooting position)
  4. Record your effective range by animal and shooting position on our PER card.  Use this as your ethical guide in shooting position/distance during your hunt.

Formula-based, progressively spaced “Staggered Ring” design
"This allows you to determine your shooting distance ability and know when to shoot or not shoot during your hunt" 


We’ve done the complicated differential mathematics required to determine the spacing of the concentric, staggered rings on a Determinator Target. This patented system allows you to shoot at 100 yards and identify your effective range. Shooting five shots minimizes any margin for error. Once you’ve shot the five rounds you simply identify the smallest ring that encompasses all five shots and then read the number on that ring which will be between 100 yards (largest ring), and 600 yards (smallest ring). That is your effective range for that specific animal and that hunt shooting position.

Right Size Vitals

Choose the Determinator Target that’s right for the animal you are going to hunt. Vital sizes vary; shoot each animal species target for the animals you are hunting. Being able to shoot 300 yards for an Elk translates to how far for a Pronghorn? Yes, it is over 100 yards less in distance. 
​
Vital size makes a difference in your effective range. 

Shoot from all shooting positions

It’s important to know your effective range for all conceivable shooting positions before you hunt. "Get off the bench" and shoot from hunt shooting positions you​ expect to experience in your hunt. If you expect to shoot up to a certain distance practice until you can consistently hit that distance ring from your expected hunt shooting position. If you don't know what position, ask your guide, your mentor or your hunting buddy. 



Why five shots?

We did our homework in determining how many shots (the minimum) that are required to determine your effective range. This minimum allows you to determine your effective range without developing bad habits. 
How accurate you really are?

Proven effective at reducing wounded or missed animals

Multiple aim points for guns sighted high

You’ll notice a series of three additional bullseyes located directly below the bullseye at the center of a Determinator target. These “Stacked” aim points are for rifles that are sighted in at 2”, 3” or 4” high at 100 yards allowing you to use these targets no matter how your gun is sighted in. A residual benefit of the multiple aim points is that they help train you to focus on a specific spot as opposed to an area.

Provide “No Bull” evaluation, instill “No Doubt” confidence

Determinator Targets provide a fair and accurate “No Bull” assessment of your true effective range, something that previously has been relatively difficult to accurately determine and, therefore, subject to testosterone-based embellishment. Just because one is able to hit their target once at a long range doesn’t mean that they can consistently make a one-shot humane kill at that range, which is the definition of “effective range” and the goal of Determinator Targets. Half the battle in any skill based effort is confidence. Using Determinator Targets instills "No Doubt" confidence by providing any shooter with demonstrable knowledge as to what their effective range is so that when a shot presents itself there is no doubt as to whether they can make that shot!
