Yeah, I've got an orange tree in my yard and I'll toss them around and shoot at them. I've also got an old rotten stump in a wood pile that I'll shoot, but decided that's a bad idea since I missed and hit some good wood and it shattered my carbon arrow. I normally shoot alum's but set up some old carbons with judo's and blunts for this stuff so I don't destroy my good arrows. I also learned the hard way about shooting jugs, at first i though it was a good idea bc with every shot the jug flew in the air and when it landed would be at a different distance so i'd shoot it again, this was great except the previous arrow that I shot with was now at an odd angle in the jug and when i shot the jug again, I shot the arrow right in half...d'oh! oh well, live and learn. Well, what I've learned from this is one day...once the kids are off to college and what not, I'll have to buy a house with a few hundred acres of woods to shoot in!
