I have pretty much shot up my old 3-D target, and am considering purchasing a new one, but am not quite sure which one to buy. I have purchased ones in the past that contained a vital composed of chewed up old laundry & scraps of metal. Needless to say, my arrows didn't get along very well with these metal scraps!  Wondering if anyone has a recommendation??? |

I remember that target. It actually had riped up clothes and hunks of metal in the vitals area. Broke lots of aluminum arrows!!!
That was a long time ago. I'm sure that company has gone out of business.
I might be looking for one too.
Anyone know of some really good reliable 3D targets out there?

At least I hope they went out of business!!!! That is a discrace - selling a product to stop arrows that does so by breaking them? Just wish it didn't take us so long to figure out why our arrows were breaking.

The Glendale buck looks like a high quality target in a few different sizes.

I have 2 of the Delta Riverbottom Bucks and 2 of the Blueridge decoys. They have survived the last 3 years outside, including doing battle with some overzealous spikes.
The vitals cost about $20.00 each to replace, sometimes I can pick them up on sale at Wally World cheaper at the end of the year.

I use to take small paper plates and go to field put them in the center of all the round bales and shot from one bale to the next it was good practice and i didn't have to retrieve the arrows just walk over and shot in the next one .Ive also shot my share of 3d targets .

I first had a McKenzie. It was a good target at first but after a while arrow removal became so difficult that I literally had to place the target on the ground and put my foot on the chest in order to remove the arrows. I then bought a Delta River Bottom. That was a good target and is still in use today at my father’s house. The Delta is at least 6 years old and still stops arrows! (After replacing the cheap vital section) Now I shoot into a Block 4x4. I love that target! I can take it anywhere and launch a few before I head into the woods. Arrow removal is effortless! The Glendale Buck would be my choice because it uses the awesome Block technology!

Well,
Thanks for the info. I got the Glendale Buck for Christmas and will give it a try! I'll be sure to let everyone know how I think it holds up.

I bought the GLENDALE full rut. It is the best target I have ever had. Plus it's cool to shoot at a 150 class deer. Hands down they don't make a target that is any better.
