to Christine

Thank you I felt it was a productive session. 

One of my problems has been finding places to shoot but for blank bailing I think I do not need 20 or even 10 yard. Is this correct?  Could I be just 5 yards from my target and practice my shot routine with correct form and shooting without aiming? I think this is true but I am asking because several other things tonight I thought were ok you told me were not and why.

Her response:

Yes, blank bale is typically done up close. No need for a range and plenty of people do this in their garage/home.  Just get the target off the ground so you don't have to angle down much.
