The ones I just bought for my home range the arrows will blow through them. The straw bales at the club I shoot at stop my arrows fine. The only difference between the bales at home verse the club is that the club uses steel bands to compress three bales together. You could do the same with ratcheting tie downs for home use.

And put a tarp over it to keep them from rotting.
A buddy of mine had a line on some really thick pieces of styrofoam a while back. These were like 4 foot by 4 foot wide and like 8 inches thick.
dont recall who but someone told me carpet works well if set up right. lots of layers banded together i think it was. stopped arrows good. i used straw bales but the arrows popped the strings and i had a helluva mess to clean up.
