Default Broadhead target recommendations

I've been trying ot find out what you guys consider the best target for broadheads. I posted this in the Bowhunting Gear forum but didn't get any hits.
I'm looking at the Block, Mckenzie Shot Blocker, and the Reinhart targets. I have a Morrel and that is getting pretty beat up.

Dunno. I shoot very few broadheads, only enough to confirm they hit with FPs. I have been using some cheapo foam taret from WalMart for the last few years. Almost time to retire it though.

I guess I really can't complain about the Morrel Yellow Jacket I have. I think its on its 3rd year. I have both the bag and the BH target. I normally shoot about 5 BH each outing and more when I get closer to season. Its mostly for self confidence as my FTs hit the same as my BHs also.

I have a Renihart block target with a replaceable center section that I've been pretty impressed with

Default That's tough

How does one keep from buying an expensive broadhead target today, when the combination of arrow and broadhead are running around $25 ?

Recommend a homemade target made for less than $10 or so?
No way. Whose going to believe that. But then I've been making mine for nearly twenty years. Long before arrows and broadheads cost $25 in single combination. Marketing has killed any ideas I had.

I couldn't sell it to a con artist. It's not thick enough, pretty enough or looks like a commercial target. And it'll absolutely never work when a newbie sees it.
