    I have used "bag" targets & a cabelas "layered" target & neither lasted very long. I have a range in my yard (out to 70 yards) so I shoot quite a bit. Looking for soething thats gonna last. Suggestions?:confused:

    Glendel Full Rut Buck 3D Target is the answer! Combining durability and strength with reality situations. Great buy for the money!

    Morrell Yellow Jacket. When you have shot it up a bunch you can buy a replacement cover, slide it over the target and it is just like new.

    This is the good thing about living close to the Morrell plant. You shoot it up take it to them pay a cheap fee and they will recover/restuff it for you.

    Just got my second Big Green Targets "Stopper" The last one lasted longer than the Morrell Super Duper I had. And it $55 shipped to your door. Highly recommend them.

    Block targets and Big Green get my votes. I have some of each here at the shop and they stand up VERY well!

    I, personally, have a Black Hole and have nothing bad to say about it.

    I love Rinehart targets. I have the block one with the vitals and my dad has the 18-1. Both have held up very well. I would stay away from the Block Black target. Had one of those and was shooting through it in less than a month. The local archery shop has a 18-1 thats been in there for at least the 3 years I have been going there and gets shot daily. It looks like crap but it still stops arrows.

    Rhinehart 18-1, best target I've used, tough, long lasting and easy to transport, I've had mine since 2008 and still got 17 faces left to destroy, no brainer in my eyes ;)

    As others have said Rhinehart makes some really good block type targets. I only shoot broadheads in a "block". I shoot a bag with field points. Much easier arrow removel. Morrell gets my vote for the bags!

    check out spiderweb targets. expensive, but I think you'll find the quality far better than the rhinehart or any block out there.

    You've clearly never compared both side by side in person.

    I didn't say rhinehart's were bad nor was it implied. I think someone in the market for a new high end target that is looking for extreme durability would be pleasantly surprised by the spiderweb targets.
