I agree with Dan, I've seen people patch up 3D targets with foam, looks good! But will not last too long, each time you pull an arrow out you bring home some of the foam.

There are not indestructable broad head target out there, they will all get holes,you don't have to have a Harvard education to figure that one out.
Although I do not own one, people that do swear by them. They say they will hold up for thousands of broadhead shots without a pass thru.
I am getting pass thru on my American Whitetail target after one year.. maybe a hundred shots if that. My block is a bust, perhaps the blob is one of the better ones.

Maybe I shouldn't shoot so good and hit the same spot time after time.

BTW, I've never had any broad head target last me a year, but then I don't know many people that shoot a least 100 arrows a day like I do.

I just figure that targets is just an expense that I budget for what I do.

You just need to understand regardless of what target you use, think of what you are doing with a broad head. You are cutting as you enter the target, it doesn’t take long to create a hole, REGARDLESS of what target you buy.. take a knife and insert it time after time, you get the thing, I’m not against the blob completely, works great with field points, but not any better than any thing else on the market. The thing I don’t like about it, is that is just too heavy. It’s carpet glue and has been allowed to cure, and it’s sticky and very heavy!
