Significant concerns

  • Do not shoot the darts at its highest range:

You are the one who knows the maximum range of your nerf gun. But don’t be silly. Never try to shoot when the target is at the margin of the reach because your dart may have less speed at its range. So the dart will miss the destination. Moreover, you can modify darts to improve its range.

  • Keep a spotter for extra support:

You can keep binocular or other pieces of equipment. Because sometimes it is not easy to confirm your shot with the scope. A spotter can tell you about the location and range of your target, the wind speed and direction.

  • Don’t forget to reload your arm:

Always keep in mind that you have not unlimited darts in your magazine. So you have to reload it with darts from time to time. Each second is valuable for this.

  • Cautious about the speed of wind:

Try to notice the wind speed and turn 20 degrees from the opposite direction of the wind. Otherwise, you may miss your target.

  •    Don’t lose your stamina:

Keep water and some light snacks with you as you have no idea how long you have to wait for your target.

  • Check each of the equipment ideally.
  • Stay calm if it’s a team rather than an individual.
  • Wait until you get the target within your range.
  • Don’t be nervous or confused.
  • Keep patience as sometimes you need to wait for long.
  • Don’t let them see you while shooting.
  • Keep reloading your arm.
  • Shoot according to the wind speed.
