Target

A target was any person or object that was the focus of an attack or other directed effort.

There were a number of tall tales about Davy Crockett. One was about how Crockett supposedly once put a target against a tree and arranged a series of tin frying pans nearby in a pattern so that he was going to shoot a bullet at one pan, and it would ricochet through the others to reach the target. A mythology also grew around Crockett and his rifle. (DS9: "Field of Fire")
