Homemade Black Foam Target
« on: July 15, 2007, 11:56:00 PM »
Who was the member on here that was selling the homemade foam targets. I believe he was from NC although not sure.

Sort of like a Reinhart block target but more of a round shape. Any help is greatly appreciated

THANKS,
Mike

Funny,
I was wondering the same thing last week.  Seems all of mine are getting a bit worn out.  Brady

Brady,
I'm pretty sure he was advertising them in the classified ads here. Supposed to take a good dose of arrow abuse.

I tried doing a search, but came up empty handed. Hopefully another member can supply some information.

There is a guy here in NC that has made a number of targets. He was shooting here at the shop almost every day for awhile. (He shoots pretty good too.)  He makes them of black foam and they work very well. (I have one.)

I may be able to help you find him if he doesn't come on here, but right now I don't have any contact. His name is Scott, but I can't remember his last name. If he, or any of his buddies show up, I'll tell him he is being paged.

slayer1 is the one.He is from NC.I bought one of his targets this spring and was happy with it.AS good as any out there.I would say it would hold up for a very long time with field points, but I shoot almost strictly broadheads so I ate it up pretty quick.That being said, it outlasted all the name brand targets I've used.I need to get another one.

Guys,
I understand they are made from some type of black foam he assembles himself. As far as cost & shipping I do not know.
