“Shield” From Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:
(cover). A defensive piece of armor, varying in size and shape, and made of skin or metal. Worn on left arm. Metaphorically, divine protection (Judg. 5:8; 1 Kings 10:17; Psa. 3:3).
“Target” From Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:
(shield). A small shield is meant, and not a target or mark in a modern sense (1 Sam. 17:6). In the margin it is called “gorget,” which was a defensive piece of armor, in the days of chivalry, used to protect the joint or opening between the helmet and cuirass.
