+1 on Mike Ezell's flags. Super responsive. No issues with momentum in the daily. Will last forever. Mike is super to work with.
I recommend the Graham wind flags. Rick is making several versions, including ones with a daisy wheel. I personally use his older style. I have 8 flags, all with surveyors tape attached, and one uppey downey, vertical indicator flag. I used folding stands on all my flags.
Several world and range records have been set at our range with these flags.

Dick,
I use the rare earth ring magnets.
The size I use is 3/4 diam x 1/4 hole x 1/8 thick.
For some reason this particular size has been unobtainable for several months now.
I am helping a friend make a set of flags like mine with some minor variance but the weight of the flags is the same with large vanes.
I bought 3/4 x 1/4 x 1/16.
I sent a couple to Jerry and he tried them on some flags he was working with and they did fine but his flags are not as heavy but he thinks they will still work for the heavier flags. Will find out later this month.
I got them from Ebay from a company call (I think) zillionsof but there are several vendors there for them. Also you can google and find companies that sell them.
There are a lot of good flags and a few not so good.
Prices certainly vary.
However the key thing is find some that do work and learn them really really learn YOUR flags.
On the other side I think because there is somewhat of a follow the leader mentality especially in new shooters looking at what the winners use should give you a clue as to what does work but many think its the golden bullet.

Personal preference if price was not object.... I would get a set of the electronic flags with the computer and soft ware... now that was way way awesome and accurate
You and me both Glenn.
Hmm I saw some once that had plastic cups on the front with a finishing nail through a dowel rod and a paper plate on the back......
Flags, some lie, and others just misrepresent what they tell you.
Must be made by politicians.
