Default Speed bows vs Block 4 x 4 vs Glendale Buck

When I purchased my X Force TS I also picked up a couple new targets, a Block 4 x 4 and a Glen Dale Buck. I knew I would be shooting more than normal so I wanted to get the best target out there.

Couple of questions regarding these targets:

1. Are they not built for speed bows?
2. Aren't they rated for so many shots before pass thru occurs?
3. Can the mfgr. tell approx. how many shots have been put into the target.

The reason I ask this is because the other day while shooting I noticed my arrows going deeper and deeper into the targets and then just a few minutes ago while I was shooting I had three arrows go completely thru the target into my backstop. Now granted the passthru areas are the heart of the Glen Dale and the center spot on the Block but I would bet the farm that less than 300 (way less, probably more like 200) shots have hit these areas. I shoot them both about equally, I have the Glen Dale set up in my backyard and use the Block when I go to the ball field to practice longer distances.
