Default Another question

I have several 3-d targets that I used with my regular bow. Most of them are Mckenzie brand. With a bolt speed up to 305 fps, will these targets handle it?????? If this helps the draw weight is 175#s. Thanks, Scott Woody

They will hold up fine, but the arrows may be hard to pull out because they are shorter> Less handle to pull on. Lube your arrows before you shoot and that will help.

yes you should be fine, i have a 4x4 block thats meant for compounds that ive shot at for a couple of years now with no problems. Mckenzie makes a standing turkey that i use every now and then, no problem. only thing that i would recomend would be not to leave them outside, the weather does a number on them.

As for lubing your arrow, Turtle car wax and even bar soap works.
