Target

A target is a block that provides a temporary redstone charge when hit by a projectile.

From block loot
Targets can be mined using any tool or by hand, but a hoe is the fastest way to break it.

Info
Targets emit a redstone signal when hit by most projectiles. This includes arrows, tridents, eggs, snowballs, splash potions, fire charges fired by a dispenser, firework rockets, lingering potions, bottles o' enchanting, ender pearls, and llama spit. The closer a projectile is to the center of the block, the stronger the redstone signal that is produced.
