The marker pulls down one of the targets which raises the other into the firing position. As soon as the shot is fired, the marker, using a 10-ft. rod with an iron disc 2-in. in diameter fastened on the end as a pointer, "spots" the shot by placing the disc over the bullet hole, and then pointing to one of the numbers over the target corresponding to the value of the shot.
