Default Outdoor Archery Backstop and Target?

Does anyone know the name of the layered target that is about 4 feet high and about 6 feet wide that has been advertising in the back of bowhunting magazines for years?

I dont know either, but i wouldve loved to load one of those warmup targets on to the top of the Yukon last Sunday at the archery shoot, they were huge and easy to pull and barely penatrated, they were homemade looking too, but way better than anything ive shot into.

The target I'm talking about has many layers like the backstops at pro shop shooting ranges.

The Block makes a large backstop version for about $700 if I remember right.

You could just make your own, this one cost me about $75 from scratch (but I didn't have any of the items laying around), and about $25 to replace the core:

Looks good. Exactly what type of foam panels are those? THanks. Roskoe.

They are insulation sheets, I believe they are 4'X50' (folded). I cut the 4' side in two places making 3 16"X50' pieces that are stacked. You can get them at Home Depot for about $30.
