I need to change my previous opinion on the Block. Its beginning to see the end of it's days and I just bought it in August. The arrows are coming out the other side or the fletches bury themselves inside the foam layers. Im running out of room to shoot now. I think it said it lasts thousands of shots, now thats that bull****. IMO.

OhioRedneck..Yea they have a new one out called the 4x4 the foam layers are enclosed in another type of solid foam, so you can shoot whatever u want into it,and u never pull out those big shavings like u are doing now, and it stays in good shape, the outer solid foam almost heals itself when u pull out the arrow, so it stays in really good shape.

I have a Block and it works great. I have had mine for about 5 months now, and I shoot about 2 or 3 times a day and it has held up great. Any tip comes out with problem at all. Yes the broadheads do chew it up some, but I think it will last for a year or two. The way I look at it is, I could go spend 20 bucks at a range for an hour or two. Or I could just spend 50 and have my own target in my yard and after the third time I shoot the thing has paid for itself. I guess it really just comes down to personal preffrence.

Yeah man! The block is not wortha crap. For field tips a bag is the way to go, broadheads I bought a cheap foam target from wal-mart just to check arrow flight.

The yellow jacket is the only way to go as long as all you're shooting at it is broadheads.
