This is what I would recommend. 18-1's come with a one year guarantee that you can't shoot through all 18 sides of it, if you do they send you a free one. They don't give many of them away so that should tell you something.

Can't say a foam target is the best choice for field points.  A bag target will last you a lot longer, be ten times as portable and doesn't hurt your wallet nearly as bad.

They have given me 4. Two in one year. I am probably on some kind of list there.

Like my rhinehart rhino block. went a little over 2 years with the original insert and  just replaced it with a new one for around $40. I shot a ton of broadheads into that insert as well from all angles so im pretty happy with how it held up to all that abuse.

I use a large square U-stuff it target in my basement and I shoot almost daily.  Generally wear out the nylon on both sides of the bag in a year or so.  The plastic sheathing, bags, etc. stuffed inside last longer than that.  At about $20 per bag, I consider it a very good deal.

Yeah, Rinehart is as good as it gets, and don't forget, when you shoot the replaceable insert out, you can replace that for just a fraction of the cost of the entire target.  I have visited their manufacturing plant in Janesville, Wisconsin several times and it is a cool place with good people working there.

Second Rhinehart 18 sided target- have shot lots of broadheads into mine and frankly I think it will outlast me.  Just over a 100.00$

Just recently purchased both the Rhinehart block and woodland buck 3-D target. Both targets are well made but the woodland buck vitals are Rhinehart foam and the rest is some other type of foam which isn't bad. The Rhinehart block target is made with thier quality foam and also has a replaceable mid section.

I believe Rhinehart may have the best target foam on the market right now however they are a bit pricey in comparison to others but you are getting a quality target.
