What did you make it out of? looks good, how about a list of materials?

Hey TX I started with about three months worth of the plastic grocery bags,then wrapped them in a foam bed comforter,and lastly used a tarp and wrapped the tarp around all this.,The other day I started shooting arrows into it and found that my arrows where going in a little farther than I like so today I took it apart and added some old blue jeans and some old clothing.After adding these I again wrapped the foam bed confforter around all the bags and cloth and duct taped the foam comforter around .Lastly I used some nylon cordage rope and threaded through some of the eyes.The blue one on the ground on the right I simply used duct tape and it rejuvinated an old broken down bag target that I had.These tarps work great for doing this.

the kidd

hey drstalker i love the way u made that target good idea with little expense im planning to make on my self but i wanted to ask u what do you shoot at it ?just fieldtips or do you shoot broadheads to? i think it would work best with field tips huh?

drstalker

I use only field tips for the bag targets,cougar the black one you see there is a morel broadhead only target,and the block target is used for broadheads too.One bag target I generaly use for paper tuning,and cronographing my bow.One reason I have that many is because I bought one before I refurbished the blue one,and the block target is a bit small,I also set some up a various yardages for backyard shooting,and the newest brown one was an expiriement,that turned out great

Heres a picture of my makeshift range,the closest the large bag is 20,the smallish block and morel are @ 30,and the blue bag target in the distance is 45 yards
