Broadhead Targets

[eyesbme]

Does anyone know of any good/quality broadhead targets that will with stand the abuse from shooting broadheads? I've heard some good/bad responses regarding the layered targets and the full size deer targets, well, they just don't hold up to well, as do the layered targerts. Probably not many targets out there that will withstand the abuse.

Has anyone heard of the Blob bow targets? I guess they're supposed to be really good and withstand broadheads. I think there made in Georgia.

Thanks.

Rinehart 18-1. From all the cross bow forums that I visit, the Rinehart is by far the best one out there. I have one but have not put enough arrows into it to make a personal conclusion about it but it does look like it will stand up to some heavy use.

+1 on the 18-1 , been shooting the heck out of mine for 3 or 4 yrs and still has a lot of life left in it , besides that they are plenty small enough to drag along on an extended hunt for practice

Why don't you go to ArcheryTalk.com and do a search there. You can search even though you aren't a member.

If you find the information you see there worthwhile, it is easy to become a member and ask specific questions about specific targets when you start narrowing down the specific targets you are considering.

Another vote for Rinehart. The 18-1 even has a one year free replacement if you have an arrow pass through.

I have the 18-1 and it is indeed great, pricey but great.

Rinehart also has a couple different square targets now too. Wish I would have waited.

I bought the original block a few years back and trashed it shooting broadheads into it,didn't hold up very well. I now have the block 4x4 and it is a step up, but is still showing alot of abuse from cut on contact broadheads. The next one will for sure be a rhinehart, they have a good warranty on them and of all the target I have shot I prefer the rhineharts.

Another good way to get better life out of your targets is to choose your broadhead carefully. Look for a broadhead that has practice heads, if they are mechanicals you wil find out they are easier on your targets and the heads do fly like the real thing. I use spitfires and practice always with the practice heads and they save so much on my target and fly the same as the real ones. I have shot and tested them out to 80yards and they are very accurate and fly great.

Do some homework maybe changing your broadhead will save you money on targets in the long run. Have fun and good luck!

Buy two bails of hay for home. Then, after the season or they get a little torn up, use them for winter plant cover around the yard. Also gather Styrofoam packing sheets from various appliance boxes - tie them together, and you can travel with it. . . . wont last but is inexpensive.

tried pretty much every target out there , Rhinehart 18-1 is by far the best , longest lasting , I have litterly 1000s of shots in mine and it is still good for more

Don't choose a broadhead just because it's easy on your target! The game your hunting deserves more respect than that.
