    I am looking to get one of these targets and wanted to see what experiences you have had with them. It is between the rinehart 18-1 and the Original Block. I also want it to be fairly mobile because I have to go to a field near my house to shoot.

    Hands down the 18-1. Someone just posted a video review about targets and both of those were tested and it was unanimous towards the Rinehart. I will try to find the video for you!

    Rinehart. My 18-1 has been sitting outside in my backyard for over 4 years now and it's still in great shape. I've put hundreds, if not thousands, of shots into it with both broadheads and field points. IMO you'll be hard pressed to find a better target.

    Block targets tend to get ripped to shreds when you start pumping broadheads into them - at least in my experiences.

    Haven't had the time at home yet will try to this weekend.

    It looks like I will pay the lil bit of extra money to get the rinehart.

    Thanks for the feedback guys.

    Was finally able to get over and pick up an 18-1 the other day! I have shot them before but forgot just how awesome they are! I have no problems pulling field points out even from close distance shots! Looking forward to putting several thousand arrows into it!

    i acctually make my own targets, i take card board boxes and fill em with old carpeting and news paper and then wrap the box in duct tape and its good for about 100- 200 shots. it lasts me around 3 weeks but you can reuse the stuffing and tthe dont cost any money so it works for me.
