i want to build a target. the kind that has the metal plate hanging like a swing set. i want to get my son and i better at head shots and was wondering how high off the ground would you make the plate. we figured the hogs would be eating and it would be about a foot or so. thanks.

We made one while back that we used an old threaded rod and welded that to a plate and a nut to the swing part. So you can adjust it. Kinda like a turn buckle. But I would say no less then a foot.

does it matter if it a foot or 5 foot off the ground? if you can hit your always hit your target you should be good to go. or am i missing somthing.
