Description

When we sheltered in place we sorted through our supply of canvas and lambskin leather and designed a limited run of colored practice wall targets for you to train at home. Only available while supplies last!

FENCING Target & BALL

Regular practice with a wall target maintains perfect extensions, lunges, and hand positions. Add the practice of hitting the ball to quickly develop point control and tempo. Set the ball in motion and theres much more you can do with both. Step up your home practice with our fencing target and ball duo.

Suggested Exercises

Attacking Around the Ball: Position yourself at lunge distance to the wall target and set the ball swinging side to side. As the ball reaches its apex on one, side fully extend and lunge to the opposite side. Recover before the ball returns.

Feinting and Attacking Around the Ball: Position yourself at lunge distance to the wall target and set the ball swinging side to side. As the ball reaches its apex on each side, feint with a full extension to the opposite side. Attack with a lunge after one, two, or three feints.

Mounting Instructions

Adjustable for All Fencers

The ball is suspended by black paracord and the height of the ball is quickly adjusted by knots in the cord anchoring it to the swing arm. You can use the knots we tied or add any of your own to tailor the height to fit you. The cushioned wall target is also suspended by paracord with a slipknot for quick adjustments.
