Abstract: A modular target having a support pole and a head. The head is preferably removable. The head is configured for removable attachment of a target. The head has a rail onto which a sleeve of a target is attached. The rail is preferably cylindrical. The target is configured with a sleeve that slides over the rail. Preferably a shooting face extends from the sleeve. Further, the shooting face is configured such that a moment arm allows the shooting face to hang at a 5-20 degree angle from vertical, with the preferred angle being 10 degrees. In a preferred embodiment the modular target utilizes a removably head configured with a neck that attaches to a vertical support pole. The vertical support pole preferably has a slide hammer attached that allows for easier placement of the target in the ground. Preferably the support pole has a fin that serves to resist rotation of the support pole when the target is hit by a projectile fired by a firearm.
