In a competition, only ONE shooting mat may be used.  If an athlete does not use a shooting mat in prone, a mouse pad (or similar small mat) may be used in kneeling.  If a shooting mat was used in prone, then that particular mat may or may not be used in kneeling, but no alternate mat may be used.  Some matches require the use of the provided range mats.  This would be listed in the match program.  In these competitions, alternative mats (such as a mouse pad) may not be used.
