RE: Deer target
Martin, I just use real deer and the arrows ain't no problem coming out the other side. LOL Really though, I don't know of any deer target that arrows come out easily. Seems targets are designed to stop arrows but not to let them come back out too good. Ain't that a pisser?

RE: Deer target
If I had to buy one it would be the one that has the layered foam in it, I think it may be called the Glendale buck, or maybe I am thinking of something else. I had one a few years ago, it was the all solid foam kind with a replacement center. I was with my older Horton and that target sucked big time! The arrows were like glued in there. I could not imagine shooting my Vortex in it. I am pretty happy with the plain targets. I have thought about getting a deer style target for my dad to get a better feel for aiming from a tree, but have yet to do it.

RE: Deer target
i have a riverbottom deer i shoot B'heads into prior to hunting season. it hasn't held up well in the outside exposure. neither does it hold up well under B'heads. it has lasted 3 years and several hundred B'head shots. not easy to remove with either field or B'heads. ishoot my bag target for all field tip use. i plan on getting the aimrite bear next for B'head use too see how long it will last. my deer will make it this year and thats its last. having to shoot it in hind qtrs now.any arrow in chest area goes on thru and good bye arrow![&o]
