Alternative to prone position for field target?

[Holden Over]

I don’t know if this has been discussed anywhere before perhaps it has and I can’t find it. I shoot with a bunch of shall we say “senior“ Air gunners most of us are old Vietnam vets. When laying down on the ground in the prone position we would need a forklift to get us back up again. We’d love to participate, but most of us don’t because of the prone position requirement. I understand some clubs Have an alternative like an off hand standing. Would be interested in anyone’s input on this topic. thanks for any assistance or guidance it can be provided.

Most Field Target competitors in the US sit on a stool or paint bucket. They don't shoot prone.

There is not a required prone position in field target in the US. I understand in the UK there is a flavor of field target where they primarily shoot from prone position.

Why not shoot prone as your last stage, then use your knee cushion as a pillow and just take a nap. Sounds like everyone wins at that game. ;o) zzzzzzzz

Could a prone shooter use a folding table as the ground base? It would make it easier to get up and still give the stability that the shooter is looking for. The many advantages of shooting from prone are stability of the operator and the equipment, recoil absorption, easier concealment, minimal return fire target area for paintball wargames. Pretty hard to hit just a fat head. Sounds like fun to me!
