Default RE: homemade targets

Our local club has made several carpet bales that work quite well for field points. Just find 150 each 16x32 carpet pieces and use all-thread and plywood to pinch them all together. The gives you a huge target that you can tighten down as your shooting wears it out. The arrows pull easily and will most likely never see a pass-through. As a design note, use 4 pieces of all-thread, instead of 2, located in each corner to achieve an even compression; this will give better stopping power and easier arrow removal. I'm planning on making one for my home shooting because it's cheap and works.
