this was one of the funniest videos i have ever seen..for 100 dollars i have 4 nice bag targets on 2 x 4 stands i built and painted..i shoot almost every day..about 3 years now..no problems..
I have one of those eBay targets. Maybe $110. Been shooting a few hundred arrows a week into it for 6 months, and so far I’ve used 4 of the 6 faces. In my experience, it’s great value.
@@aaronjames7266 I used 3 packs of the EVA foam floor gym mats, you get 4x 500x500 aprox12mm thick and glued together the edge strips with it to glue into each corner on the inside for more join support and filled it with strips of material and the cardboard kitty litter before gluing the last face on. also you can pin cheap yoga mat in different colours to the face and draw on different target patterns etc. hope that helped
I have the rhein heart 18 target was around $160 USD. The only problem I've had is one of my field tips came off in the target (my fault) so I avoid that side. ALWAYS right twist to break target torque "then" pull out for field points. This saves the shoulder as well.🏹🤠👍
Other way to make target is to buy sheet of dense polyethylene foam (for pool insulation or used as subfloor), something 5cm+ thick, cut it in 4 parts, glue 4 layers together with some tape, then wrap with stretch packaging foil. Done. Stops arrow from 50lbs compound bow, and can be easily thrown into a trunk.
Check out Alibaba you can buy targets very similar to that probably not just as good for about $20 to $30 each. You may have to order 10 but that would make it worthwhile then you'd have lots of targets for a long time
This would be the perfect time to go to bunnings and buy some foam mats and cut them to fit and then glue and ratchet it. Still cheaper than an eleven and will last
portable targets get pretty expensive, I went with a Bulldog Double Dog for a "portable as long as its not going that far from my truck target" but looking to get a small cube or ball target for summer.
Great review Steven!!! Its like they say, you get what you pay for so why purchase the target that's going to fall apart?? I use Morrell targets and they sell on eBay for around $50-$65 for a pretty big target and they last a long time. But I do understand that some people are on a strict budget and can only purchase what they can afford. Thanks for the great reviews brother!!!
8mths easy 2000 shots added 5 new strips of carpet and have re-tensioned a few times . BUT its DIY and took a few hours to make and Im not putting in my Car. and it took a few months to get enough old carpet ( Country)
I've still managed to blow out the middle of mine and have several other soft spots even after retentioning SOOooo, I shoot my reinhart in front of my carpet backstop. Best of both worlds.🏹🤠👍
A very good video explaining the cheaper target. Good quality glue and ratchet straps looks to be the go!!! Just wondering if you could add some weight to it whilst it's apart to try and minimise the movement when the arrow hits it - without the risk of damaging the arrow (hitting the weight)?
What backstop is on that FastGo target? I’ve got one which is about four months old and get regular pass throughs. I’m currently stopping the arrows with an old Delta McKenzie bag strapped to the back of FastGo.
Are you from America or Australia? If America then you may not realise that a lot of our archery products can be double the price paid for the same product
I don’t think you should spend $90 for something that you have to repair right after you get it. I would rather invest a little bit more money and have some thing that I know is of good quality And gonna last a long time. $90 is a lot for a one time use and then you have to spend more to repair it not worth it, I have to disagree with you sorry, thanks for sharing take care my friend God bless. 👍🏼🏹🇺🇸
$90 in Australia is an extremely cheap target compared to $90 in America. A lot of our products are double the price you would pay for the same product unfortunately.

Because You are a real person. This guy is so money spoiled it hurts to watch ...
@@-fazik-3713 he sells archery equipment, so he reviews archery equipment, wtf are you talking about?

Build a frame use tarp for face fill with 150 pounds of rags stops every Fieldpoint I throw at it
How much is 150 pounds of rags
Once you shoot it to pieces you can use the insides to build a ghillie suit... what a bargain!!
Ive got a 90cm square layered foam target.
Ive owned it for 8 years.
I just shuffle the layers on a regular basis and ratchet strap it tight again.
The Camo rags inside are for when the target breaks apart you can use the material in your new Gillie suit LOL. Always find a positive.
Talking about Bunnings I also made my own for 30 bucks and have shot it constantly for 8 months and still going strong

I make my own. Fill a cardboard box with old clothes reinforced with duct tape. Replace the cardboard face as needed. Works ok.
do you live in Australia?
No, New Jersey USA. Enjoy Archery Supplies.
That's how I made mine
Good for #32 recurve. Don’t how effective it would be for higher # recurves and compounds.
This would be the perfect time to go to bunnings and buy some foam mats and cut them to fit and then glue and ratchet it. Still cheaper than an eleven and will last
I dont think it will hold with glue. Most targets like that are put together with heat. A $40 bag target is better.
portable targets get pretty expensive, I went with a Bulldog Double Dog for a "portable as long as its not going that far from my truck target" but looking to get a small cube or ball target for summer.
I bought something similar about a year ago. It exploded on the 3rd arrow.
love these videos
I would use a quality Contact Cement or a cement designed for foam.

A bale of hay is great cheap archery target if you have a place to leave it set up.
Carpet target 6 years and still going strong

I like the easy carry around part. Bulldog pug target is what I use now. Have you ever used on like that also

The Eleven products are the best I ever tested to date👍
Un video cu tinta eleven
Box for me stops my 70# cost me 12$ in materials
Keep the target as your video sidekick for your videos! Hilarity ensues!!!
I shoot the Morrell savage bag
.works great

Do you use pin nocks on your vaps?
They should have used vulcanizing rubber on that cheaper target.
just need some tarzans grip. that fixes any thing
I have been shooting the same bag target years now. I paid $40 american for it. I wouldn't pay $90 for the expensive one.

@@stormy1184 yes sir it’s crazy what targets cost. 👍🏼🏹🇺🇸
I just grab cardboard boxes and fill them full of more cardboard boxes. I shoot too much for buying them.
I guess you really do get what you pay for.
Less talking more shooting
Yappy dogs 👎
