I have the Block target and as time goes by I like it more, being shot at alot must be helping it. The one handed arrow removal is a total lie though. I bought the block cause the few bag targets I tried my arrows went through them, or at least enough to ruin the vanes. I here some say hanging a bag target helps alot too. As Dan said the home made version starts out with alot of wal-mart bags and some scrap cloths and you pack it in as tight as you can into a burlap bag and you are good to go. Never done it, but thats what they say. I think DNK can offer more details on the home made version stuff.
