maddhunter Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 A friend of mine bought one this weekend at BPS. I shot it today with my Switchback using carbon Vapor 5000 arrows and they went all the way through to the other side. The tips were sticking out about 2"s. When I pulled them out I had to use both hands, a knee, and an elbow on the target. When I got them out there was some of the target stuck to the arrow, like it was glued to it. Anyone else have this problem? I thought maybe after we used it it would loosen up a bit but then my arrows might get a complete pass through. I'm thinking of getting a Morrell buck target. They claim to have a 2 finger removel, anyone use these targets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tedicast Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 Re: Anyone Use A Delta Broadhead Buck Target?????? The best target, for broadheads in my opinion is the Morrell Yellow Jacket Target. This is a pretty amazing target, and fairly cheap too. My bro and I have shot 100's of BH's into his, and it is still in perfect condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin R10 man Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 Re: Anyone Use A Delta Broadhead Buck Target?????? Got a Glendel buck this year, so I can shoot broadheads now without damage to my target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Squirrelbuster Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 Re: Anyone Use A Delta Broadhead Buck Target?????? I have shot a Delta brand target before. It wasn't specifically for broadheads, but even when I shot field points into it, the target didn't last long and it fell apart after a short while. I personally don't care for Delta targets after that so I want to get something like the Glendell buck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruttinbuc Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 Re: Anyone Use A Delta Broadhead Buck Target?????? I had a Delta Backyard Buck target ripped off last summer . Was in good enough shape to steal I guess. I didn't shoot broadheads into it though. Shot a lot of field points and only re laced the insert once in the 8 years I had it. The only problem I had with it was if you hit too far forward of the vital you'd hit the hard plastic of the coupling device in the neck of the deer. Actually, it helped me shoot better. I don't know if their foam has changed or not. Both Delta and McKenzie say you can shoot broadheads into their 3d targets, but to tell the truth you'd be spending a lot of money on replacement vitals if you took them for their word. They sell a lot of those things for those few words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddhunter Posted February 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 Re: Anyone Use A Delta Broadhead Buck Target?????? We bought 2 extra replacement vitals for 1/2 price, I think I'll shoot my broadheads this week and see if that works. I just can't believe how hard my arrows were to get out of the target.
