    I have been saving gracery bags to try stuffing with those. I seen a target at the local archey shop that appeared to be stuff with plastic and they were using to test shoot bows at roughly 5 yards with no issues at all!

    More good things you can stuff targets with is lumber covers, plastic from a furniture store, plastic from a carpet store. These are easy to get and do very well.

    Hey all, I just ordered a target from BP until I gather enough old clothes to make mine. I got the Hurricane bag at Hurricane? Bag Archery Targets | Bass Pro Shops I ordered the 28" x 28" x 12" target. Supposed to arrive tomorrow!
