Archery targets

[Bowhunter65]

My 13 year son and I have been making these home made box targets the last couple years. It has been a great project for us as a father & son and a little hunting money in our pockets.

Those turned out great! :upthumb:

Looks awesome! Any details on what you used to build them?

 

[Bowhunter65]

any scrap plywood or OSB, 2"X 2", drywall screws, 1 1/2" and 3 1/2", plastic shipping wrap 6 large garbages to fill a 3'x3'x24" box and a old thick hay tarp on each side with a thick Costco in front of that on both side. What also works good behind the tarps is old commercial rubber roofing.

cohunter14,  here are the frames

Thanks Terry. Where do you get the shipping wrap? Just save it up over time?

I get my used shrink wrap from any place that has a loading dock - just stop in and ask and they will direct you to a large dumpster full of it.


I just stuff a bunch in a poly feed sack and tie the opening up. That way I can place it anywhere I want to

cnelk, I made these so you can unscrew the top and replace the poly shrink wrap.

I get the shrink wrap from my works shipping & materials department and stores around Kalispell. The 3?x3?x24? inch box takes 6 large leaf garbage bags to fill the box and that is super tight.

Another target done today, we changed them a little bit and used a 3/16 corrugated plastic sheet as a backer behind the tarp.
