I've lately been using paper targets for my speed steel practice, and I think it's helping. I take artist's newsprint tablet, which is pretty cheap at the office supply store. On each page, I draw a 10" circle using my steel target as a template. Then I set up five paper targets (with cardboard backing). If I am missing, I can easily see if I'm high or low or left or right. If all shots are near the center, then I speed up until I get a couple near the outer edge of the circle. My aim is to be as fast as I can with all five shots in the circle, but some of them nearly outside.

Anybody tried this approach?
