Prior to today, I had never seen or heard of a swinging star target, but now having seen them, they will haunt my competition nightmares. Called the “Death Star” by many who have encountered it, the swinging texas start adds lateral and vertical movement to the standard rotation.

In short, shoot it quick or have your trigger finger timing down pat. With the swinging motion, the rotational speed is increased dramatically and adds an element of unpredictability to the standard star target.
