What area of the body should I shoot the Taser?
Because the charge passes through the part of the body that is directly located between the two probes, for maximum effectiveness the Taser probes should land with at least a 6-inch \ spread between them. The closer the attacker is to the Taser when it is fired, the closer together the probes will land. Therefore the optimum distance to fire a Taser is between 7-10 feet to give the probes a chance to spread about 16 inches to deliver the greatest possible shock to the body.
