RE: Broadhead targets.
 
im with Rob. i buy a cheap foam target from Dick's sporting goods..its roughly 2" thick of pretty solid foam and is 30" square or something like that...i just push golf tees into it and shoot those as my spots. i get alot of use out of them...dont count shots...but i shot alot of broadheads...think they run 30$ or so...cant find anything similar at the hardware stores though...

i think i may buy a rinehart 18-1 sooner or later...im like Rob...i will fling broadheads all year just to see if i cant ruin one...my only fear is how hard removal is...my foam sheets are simple enough...unscrew the head pull the shaft and screw it back on...works for me

I shot at my Morrell's yellow Jacket and broadhead removal is very easy.

I've shot Morrells, and the Block, but neither will stand up to Broadheads like a Cube;)

I'm telling you, spend the 100 and get the reinhardt. I would be willing to lay money that you would go thru at least 10 $30 targets before the 18-1 gave out. My shop guy sold one to a guy who shoots nothing but broadheads and it took him like 2 years and somewhere around 4k shots to cut it in half. I've had mine for 6 months, mostly broadheads and not even a dent. Worth the extra cash IMO.

Another vote for the Cube. I've shot thousands of BHs through mine. You can shoot it from all six sides, and it won't sliver like the Block.

I shoot broadheads year round. There is nothing that can be slashed up and take it for long. Anyone who say's different is selling something. You and I know it's true.

How many spots do you fell comfortable shooting at on a target? We practise with shots we expect to make. Requires a sizable target so we hit something and not have to find them buried in the ground somewhere.

Drink the koolaid if you want, I'm not spending a dime more on a target that's going to be shreaded than I have to. I pick solid foam over layered any day. I'll be layering it soon enough.

I like the Morrels yellow jacket targets. I have the field point target and the broadhead target. I have shot maybe 100 shots in the field point one and havent tried the broadhead one out yet. I will report back with a update

Go to Cabela's wesite. They have there consumers do a review on products and rate them 1-5, with 5 being the best.

Here is how they scored:

The Cube--3.2
Morrell 6 shooter--2.6
Morrell Yellow Jacket--3.3
Original BLOCK--4.3
BLOCK 4x4--4.5

Again, this is independant reviews, without bias, done by Cabela's customers that have purchased the product and what they think of it.

I would say with going with something from BLOCK makes the most sense.
