I live about 10 miles from Morrell factory. The last time I called over there they said you can still come by and get a new cover put on your bag. I did it once back in the day. Seems like it cost about 10 bucks then. I am going to get a yellow jacket this year. I will find out in a couple of years if they still recover for dropins.

I made my own bag target using a burlap feed type of bag and stuffing it tight with grocery sacks.  It stops arrows well and they are easy to remove.

well boys!I think I've made my mind up... I'm going to use the gift card for something else. It seems the answer is too easy, feed bag with plastic bags and cloths.

Thanks guys

dont let them out in bad weather like rain,snow or dry weather. Ive had a couple of the yellow jackets and they do ok but once they get wet and you try to move them around they frey and rip, just be careful and i thought about building a box around the bag to keep it out of the elements. thanks for reminding me of a nice winter project

If you can find poly seed sacks and fill with plastic it's very weather proof. Burlap will eventually rot but just slide new bag over it when it does. Cloths stuffed in work good but get soaked stink and rot.
