RE: Broadhead targets.
 

The concept of the Block target, according to the local dealer, is that you shoot broadheads only very sparingly - just enough to confirm where they fly compared to field points - and primarily use the target for just field points. I have about 4,000 shots through mine - in only about a year. Only a couple of hundred of those were broadheads. It has several fist size spots where arrows will go in past the fletching. I can probably get another couple thousand shots out of it before it is totally trash. Right now, though, I'm not really comfortable shooting at it unless it's placed in front a stack of hay bales

BLOCK 4x4! Great target

I love Morrell's Yellowjackets broadhead targets.

I'm probably going to try one of these once my Block 4X4 is worn out. I got one of theSuper DuperMorrell outdoorbag targets this summer and it is holding up really well (field points only).

I always thought it was funny that everyone expects their broadheads to "tear up" a deer and do massive damage, but then they gripe that it tears up their targets. If they are worth anything as a game stopper, they are not going to be kind to a target no matter what material is used. JMHO.

True . . . . although most of the broadheads that went into my Block target were the practice heads - like the Muzzy, Rage, and Montec. Still, they tear the target up significantly. Best case scenario is when the broadhead is sticking a couple inchesout the back side - where you can just unscrew it and then pull the arrow back out.

18-1 is just awesome. It will outlast any target out there, therfore worth the extra ca$h. IMO.

I make my own out of styrofoam coolers. I get them from hog farmers,they get vaccines and a.i's in them. Anyway they are thick foam and I put big chunks of foam in them and tape it shut. After I shoot it I unscrew the broadhead then pull the arrow out. Kind of a pain but doesn't cost anything in most cases. You can also shoot all sides,so you can get some decent life out of it. Just another idea if anyone wants to try and some of these farmers get alot of these coolers so there can be lots of free targets.

I got a Morrell's Yellow jacket on Thursday. We'll see how it holds up!

There isn't a target made that can withstand the consistant pounding of broadheads. It is what it is so I'd go as cheap as possible as you will be repairing or replacing them constantly. The one Justin recommends is a good deal, I think I'd purposely see if I could shoot through one with broadheads in a year. I'd bet I'd do it.
