Man, JohnJacobH, does that bring back memories, I ran a stage where we put balloons on the back side of the target, with string and zip ties to keep the balloons in place, vertically centered but guess where they are, tactically you should just stitch it up the front from bottom to top and you will get it, some competitors ran out of ammo. I was not very popular that day.
The devil is in the details. With the grocery bag arrangement the balloon is essentially self centered inside the bag. It is exactly where it needs to be, you just have to shoot straight to hit it.
I did not mention it, but the bag bottom (top surface) has a 1-2 inch hole where the tied end of the balloon and string go through. It
must be big enough for the collapsed balloon to pass through when hit.
It is an extremely cheap and effective target. You can get center of mass hits and still miss the balloon.
It goes without saying these are round party balloons filled with air, not helium or specialty animal shaping type balloons.
