For a 3D, go Rhinehart. I too have the Broadhead buck. The frame and insert are self healing foam. I didnt get the mileage out of the insert as others on here, which at $50 a pop for replacement, It soured me a bit. As for me I got no more then 2 months out of the core before I started shooting through it with nothing but field points. I will admit though, im using very heavy wood arrows that are hard on targets. I like the thing, even if it is small, but Im using a butt target for the majority of my heavy practice sessions nowdays, and only use my 3D BB for broadheads when season is coming on.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for your help in deciding on a blemished broadhead buck by Rinehart. All told, got the target for 149 plus 28 for freight shipping.

After setting it up and going through a couple of practice sessions, let me say this: wow!

The target is solid. I'm shooting 55# recurve--613 gr. arrows--260 up front. And this target took each shot like a champ.

Easy to remove my arrows. I look forward to shooting broadheads closer to the season opener.

Have a great day,
Josh

I still have the insert for my Rhinehart booner buck, but the body fell apart after two seasons.  The aluminum rods under the vitals also stole a couple of field points and inserts.  My old Glendel caused several arrow mushrooms, but lasted 3 times longer.  Just sayin'.  The new high end Deltas I have seen at our traditional shoots seem really good.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

I have never had any problem with them stopping arrows.  It's them stopping arrows after a few have been through it.  If you want it to last a long time, don't ever shoot it with broadheads! Like don't EVER!  Get another target designated for broadheads.  Shoot a cardoard box with sand.

But its end is the way of death."  Proverbs 14:12
