Default Targets

Hey guys, I shoot a crossbow (Horton Hunter 175) and am in the market for a new broadhead target. I have a Morells practice target and it stops the field points just fine, but when I use the broadhead target my arrows go in WAY deep (the Hunter has close to 100 pounds of KE) and it doesnt do any damage to my broadhead or arrow but it does to the target. It some effort to remove the arrow (Not a lot but more than I'd like to, i know I'm lazy) and when I remove the arrow it comies out with all the "guts" of the target with. Foam,cardboard, plastic. Its a good target, but I know its not going to hoold up for my crossbow.

Anyway, question is: DO you guys use/know/ or are familiar with any targets that can withstand this type of penetration and KE?

Thanks in advance.
