My archery club shot out are mckensie bear target pretty quick but the rinehart just keeps going and going. If you are going to be doing a lot of shooting it might be worth it for you. If not then i would get the delta since it looks better , is bigger and cheaper.

I was an officer in the local club for about 6 years. I would go with one that has the replaceable kill or mid section. If you are shooting by yourself any should last for a long time.

I love my Rinehart targets but I agree that the price of the Rinehart bear target is pretty steep. I've had the delta bear target for a couple of years now and it's holding up pretty well. It gets a fair amount of use too.
I reckon so

I like the Delta walking bear. Not as expensive and it looks nice.

I have the Cabella's 3-D bear.  Overall, I've been pleased with the quality of the target.  A few minimal complaints for what they're worth.. arrows can be hard to pull out if you miss the vitals (not that I would know), the black finish wears off around areas where arrows have hit.  The target is reasonably durable.  The vitals area is starting to break down after a couple years of moderate use.  I think it's a good quality target for the money.  You can buy better by spending more but I'd buy this one again.  Hope this helps in your decision making.

I recommend you check out R & W targets.  They are the best value out there, if you don't want to fork-out the cash for a Rinehart.  Our club has a few and they hold up much better than McKenzie or Delta.
