    This is what I have been using for a Target. I cut a piece of foam insulation from homedepot into 16"x16 squares and taped them together. I figure when I start getting pass thru's I will fill it with spray foam or add a few more layers of foam. It has already been hit with probably 150 arrows and it seems to be holding up well.
    I have been trying to find the plain old white Styrofoam sheets to make a BH target. Is yours blue or white? Back home (MN) you can find it for $10 a 4'x8'x2" but I can't find any around Altus. All they have is the blue spendy stuff that is like $30 for 1/2" sheet.

    ^^ The way it should be, never having to know if customer service is great or not! Too bad it isn't that way for all companies. It makes you wonder when eveyone knows about great customer service from a company doesn't it? ^^

    MLN, go to the grocery store and ask them for the Styrofoam containers that the grapes come in. I get a few of them and cut some and stuff them in one of the others. Two together with duct tape wrapped around them and they cost only 2 dollars for the duct tape.

    Thanks Hutch. That looks kinda thin, I'm surprised you aren't having pass-thrus with BHs?

    MLN, I fill 2 of them with the foam and duct tape them together. That makes them double thick. With 30 shots into them I didn't have any pass tru's. The broad head sticks out the back 3" or less. If you were concerned use 3. We used 2 filled with foam and broadhead tuned 3 bows with no problems.
