Title: Broadhead target
Post by: wabow on April 29, 2010, 09:48:06 AM: I need a decent broadhead target. I spent last evening tuning broadheads. Got about 45 minutes into a Morrell foam target supposed to be made for broad heads. That was a waste of $75 now I have a bunch of expensive packing foam. Any suggestions on what target might make it through at least a few months?

Thanks
Don

As long as you only shoot Bheads at the correct side (black ends) it should last a while, although it does get shredded.

Post by: carpsniperg2 on April 29, 2010, 12:06:23 PM: yeah the 18-1 was the target that i was talking about and it will hold up i shoot more than 90% of most people and if i don't shoot it out in a year when i use broadheads all year long off and on then most will get prob 2 years out of them.

and yes wabow i have done that a few times and it works but not super great the bubbles that form are a little to big and makes it more fluffy then dense but it will work

Yellow Jacket is made by Morrell.

Mine is / was the Morrell six shooter on the cabela's sight. I like to shoot on average Id guess a dozen or so arrows a day. Some days less but some many more. With the Morell I shot for about 45 minutes and can fit my foot through the hole. I think the hay bale stopped more arrows than the target. :)

Post by: Button Nubbs on April 29, 2010, 09:33:51 PM: The yellow jacket I have is a broadhead only target and is really tough. I shot broadheads for an hour the other day and there are holes but not all the way thru, plenty more target to shoot at. trust it when it says don't shoot field tips tho, I literally had to stand on top of the target and pull the "sword from the stone" with an arrow puller. Brutal!!!

I believe the reinhardt 18-1 has a 1 year warranty.
