Here are pictures of the target. The shots on this course are scored 10 and 8 points respectively. The scoring lines are not pronounced enough to see at any distance.
There is a slightly different version of the course posted above that is used in classes at GPSTC. In those, the scoring areas are 10 and 5 points respectively.
Also, the course posted above may be called slightly differently by differing instructors. This doesn't change the basic format of the course though.
