I also use the morrel bag,it has 15 two inch dots on one side and the deer vitels on the other.I only use it for fieldpoints,I have a block I use for broadheads and 2 mcenzizs(spl) and a delta that I use in the yard for a little 3-d course along with the block and bag....

The newer Block with that you can shoot four sides (two of them have deer vitals) has been pretty good so far. My old block is good but here are slivers coming off it all the time. The Black Hole is ok but not quite as durable.

I also use the Block made for crossbows. It'sok, but it also loses slivers when I use my Slick Tricks on it.

I keep seeing a new multi-sided block that guarantees you can't wreck it in a year regardless of what you shoot at it, if you do they will replace it, free. I may pick one up to give it a run.

Just picked up one of the "Rhinehart" (sp) 18 in 1 targets yesterday. It does have 18 good shootable spots. Some a little smaller than others cause they are just cutting the corners off a square so to speak but those are gonna be great for treestand practice. I really got it because the bow monkey said it was tough but you could still pull an arrow out. I have only shot field tips at it so farand I can actually pull them out.
One of the things I really like is that you can circle the thing and always have a spot to shoot at. Time will tell if it can take broadheads but I have enough bags around that I don't have to beat it up to bad with constant use...
They also had a big bowling ball size target with a rope on it. You just toss the thing and it lands on it's one flat spot. Maybe tomorrow.

Hehehehe, David, if you buy one, bring it to the cottage. You can return it on the way home!

Will do! I still have to head back to the Bow shop for a release.. I don't think they sold that one there, so back to London too..

I am pretty sure it is the one Planter is talking about..

Here is a link, however, this link doesn't mention the warranty that I specifically remember reading on the label. To bad I couldn't find a larger link..
