Looking to buy another 3-D target( bear or hog)and would like a few suggestions/recommendations. I bought a Delta buck this year, and was very dissapointed in the quality. I had the core shot out in about 2 weeks. Dont plan on making the same mistake again with a Delta product...so help me out here. Thanks You, Shane

Rinehart. They're expensive, but quite durable and easy arrow extraction.

I'll second R & W. Very good product for the money. If you've got plenty of money then go with Rienhart.

Thanks for the warning on the Glen-Del,been looking at them.It took me a while to learn on the Delta buck, I even bought a replacment core,same thing,2 weeks.Is the reinhart the one thats used at most of the 3-D shoots-more of a rubber material than foam ..? Thats more what Im looking for..I think. Dont mind paying the extra,just want to know Im going to get a few more shots out of this one. Thanks

Rinehart's are the best available in my op[nion. Expensive but durable. seal up well and arrows pull easily.

Aren't there a couple different types of cores for the Glen-del??
I use the older style core Glen-del for just fine tuning my practice. Its older core (not as good as the newer model) has lasted many shots.

Mackenzie targets seem to be the most common targets at the 3-d shoots that I have been to out west.

Rineharts always make me smile. They last well and give up your arrow like a gentleman.

Rineharts are the Cadillac of 3D targets. If you have the money go with one of them.
Nothing wrong with the Mckenzie's, I believe Delta owns them now, except for the harder arrow removal.
I had a Glen Del and personally liked it. The life of the centers was not quite what I expected but still good enough. Apparently it was good enough for the person who stole it! For the 2 years I had mine I must say I got my monies worth out the it.

I had the same experience with a delta this year. I'd say the Reinhart is your best bet.

RINEHART IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO. DURABLE AND EASY ON THE ARROWS. NO POINTS LEFT BEHIND IN THE TARGET. MCKENZIES HOLD UP BUT ARE TOUGH ON THE ARROW.

I've got a Glen-Del its OK but I think think for the price it should be better. I just bought my first Rinehart (turkey) and I'm very impressed so far. Arrow removal is very easy. I think its Rineharts from now on for me!

Mikes Archery Leather + Rinehart =
I don't see the Rinehart's as expensive because of their durability and the fact you're not pi#*!ed off when a cheap target eats your arrow or falls apart in a month. Granted, Rinehart does make some pricey ones but they have reasonable deer-hog targets. If you are dead set on a moose or a velociraptor expect to pay.
