The Leitold 3-D targets are the choice for sport shooting and life-like training providing over 140 unique competition quality targets to interest any archer. S3DA archers will have the opportunity to experience the Leitold 3-D targets during the 3-D National Championship in London, KY on July 23 rd -26 th , by signing up for the Kirsch Target Challenge.
“When getting to know S3DA, we saw such a similar passion at KIRSCH that we had to get involved. We support this organization not only in archery, but also how it can help youth in building a solid foundation. It is a great platform to nurture the values which parents want to pass on. To support S3DA, we developed a top-quality line-up of five NEW targets built to hold up to what their shooting puts onto a target. The foam used in these realistic targets is great for the whole family. They are being launched with the Universal Scoring and replacement inserts with availability in time for use at the S3DA 3-D Nationals. We thank S3DA for the opportunity to support the outdoor enthusiasts, conservationist, and potential hunters of the future,” stated Kirsch, LLC Founder and President, Phillip Kirsch.
S3DA Executive Director Jennie Richardson said, “We look forward to this sponsorship with Kirsch as we continue to expand our program. It’s extremely encouraging to see new sponsors coming on board to support and believe in the mission of S3DA even in these trying times. Since the inception of the S3DA program we’ve seen more and more retailers and industry representatives enjoying the benefits of our all-inclusive program and it appears that will continue far into the future. Although they are only beginning to make their mark in the US, Kirsch targets are the target of choice in the UK. Kirsch is known for manufacturing some of the most durable and fun targets around and feature easy set-up and easy arrow-pull for the entire family.”
