Bag targets last the longest, but they are no good for broadheads.

Morrell SIX SHooter, you have six sides to shoot at. ( 2 broadhead and 4 field ).It's also 1/2 the price of a 4x4 block

Agreed, the best target period is a bag target, especially the larger Morrells. They last forever.....

Each fall, buy a cheap broadhead target...shooting any target with a broadhead destroys it. Don't buy expensive 3D targets and shoot broadheads into them. A great setup has a bag target, a broadhead target and a 3D.

I must be cheap. Paper grocery-sized bag full of newspapers (not crumpled, but stacked). With a broadhead hit, unscrew the shaft, reach in the bag and spread the papers apart, and retrieve the broadhead.

I use a Morrell's Yellowjacket BH target and a Morrell's Infinity bag. I also have a McKenzie 3-d buck but don't tell Germ.

I have a Morrell bag target, two 3D McKenzie targets, and a Morrell Yellow Jacket broadhead target.

Without hesitation I would say that the Morrell Yellow Jacket is THE target for broadheads. I shoot broadheads A LOT........almost exclusively and that target has lasted me 3 years. That is amazing. It may have lasted longer but my brother had a POS Crimson Croc come off inside and I took it apart to get it out. Great target and unbelievably durable. (I should mention I shoot Stingers which go in and come out pretty clean) I think I paid $30 for it at Gander Mountain. Best deal ever.

I shoot field tips for a couple weeks just to get my shooting muscles back in tune in the spring time but other then that I really don't see the point.

I like the 3D targets because it keeps the sight picture of a deer in your head...........which is better then shooting at orange dots IMO (for a hunter anyways).

It's all fun and targets are made to be destroyed.
