    I have been looking at 3D targets lately and checked that one out last time I was at the store and wasn't impressed at all with it. Think I am going to end up with a Glendel. I think for the price and quality they are the way to go for 3D.

    I already have a Rinehart block style target. I have had the Block brand targets before. 2 actually and went through both in a summer so I stay far far away from those. I want a 3d target to get a more real world feel and so my girlfriend can learn more about shot placement and where she should be aiming/hitting.

    Jfergus- I keep going back and forth on the Glendel bucks. I hear the inserts are really good but the rest of the target just falls apart. I think I really want the Rinehart Woodland buck. I was just trying to save a little money if I could.

    I don't have one yet but I shoot my buddies and his has held up great to daily shooting for the past year or more. I also like the fact that you can replace the insert and can take just the insert with you for a practice block if needed.

    Didn't think about that. That would be cool to have a smaller practice block to take to the woods just in case you drop it or just want to fling a few arrows during a lunch break. I'll take a closer look at the Glendel when I go up this weekend.

    I had one a few years ago. Really liked it except for the fact that it seemed to have a metal bar/rod in the stomach in order to keep the foam layers compacted. I broke several arrows when shooting a little low. To me that was a deal breaker. Arrows are too freaking expensive!
