Title: Backstop Question
Post by: TheBigRedArcher on October 31, 2014, 07:38:00 PM
Hey all:

Besides just plainly not missing the target. What do you all use for a back stop? I live in a neighborhood and want to shoot more than I can get to the range to accomplish. I also would like to start getting my son into shooting with daddy and dont want the arrant arrow hit the neighbors dog...although the cat is fair game. I looked at "the wall" archery backstop on 3rivers but nearly had a stroke when I saw the price.

Thoughts?

Thanks

I use a really big bag, the kind they use for the archery in schools program.  They aren't too expensive.  I also pile a bunch of my old bags, broadhead targets, and deer targets around and behind the bag.  I have a really big yard, though, and can shoot towards the levee out back, where no houses are.

I use a stall mat from Tractor Supply.

Not an archery shooting FORM question.  This would be much better in the "Pow Wow" section.
