Ive read some recent posts on here regarding making your own homemade archery target. Wanted to see if I could get a few more ideas out of you guys as to how you can make a good quality target for cheap. Thanks in advance for the input!!!!

we have used shreaded rubber works pretty good

Here is one that I made a while back.

I just have a big cardboard box stuffed with other cardboard boxes, old clothes, and plastic bags and it works great.

It really depends on what you have available/access to. I work in a warehouse where we deliver a lot of computers so I've taken the foam packing material and layered it together and put back into a pc box. Works great, layered foam has memory qualities so holes seal up pretty much like a Block target. It doesn't stop arrow completely though soIhavebanded some cardboard into a bale and that's the backstop in the back yard. On the course I go to all there target frames are stuffed with old blankets and backed with used carpetwhich stops everything. You couldget a cardboard box the size of your likeingand layer in some carpet backing and carpet. Go to the local carpet store and you probably can talk them out of stuff they've ripped up on jobs or the excess trimmings that are usually left over.Their dumpster is probably full of it. Just a few ideas for you, good luck.

Balled up old clothes, bedsheets, blankets, towels, curtains - they'll stop a freight train. That's what I have my target stuffed with. My muzzy practice heads practically fall right out.

You can stuff the materialsin a cardboard box, in a burlap bag, in a duffel bag, in a piece of luggage, anything will work.

Another thing that will stop a truck - surprisingly - is balled up shrink wrap. As noted earlier, I've heard that plastic grocery bags will work too.
