At BIGshot Archery, we are committed to supporting youth archery and scouting programs. The BIGshot NASP youth archery target is the perfect solution for archers who want to move up and potentially compete at JOAD and NASP archery shoots.
Cardboard vs wooden framing. Loose fabric filling vs heavy bound closed cell foam layer filling. These are the difference between a $100 target and a $300 one.
Bought 4 at $114.00, so willing to accept less robust construction, because these are very light/portable, very important to my portability requirements.
For the four, I added a plywood base and swing out “feet” to each. One was shipped with 90cm target area instead of the NASP 80cm, support sent me a replacement cover which I installed and I added extra thickness of cardboard behind each target facing side (36”x36”) to that particular target.
The photos in the product description are from the new archery ranges built by the Pennsylvania Game Commission in 2023. My local PGC range has used the same foam blocks for ~18mos, and the only ones which really need replacing are the center blocks where broadheads were allowed.
Otherwise? They have been used, abused, and hold up exceptionally well. To the point where I need to steal that target house design and plan to recreate this setup in my backyard.
I ordered the Pro Hunter Double Duty Buck Target for my son as a Christmas gift. He proposed using BIG Shot Archery and I was very pleased with the ordering, shipping time and delivery. THANKS Big Shot Archery.....
I didn’t expect the target to be as heavy as it was. If it lives up to two finger bolt removal I’ll be ok with it. My other target weighs less than half but needs a special bolt removal tool and a lot of strength. Didn’t like shooting as much as I should have with that one.
My 500+ FPS crossbow bolts are very easy to pull out. Only time the bolt snags is if field point unscrews on impact and gets caught on the outer cover. Very easy to remove even if it does this though. Outer case seems to be stapled together very well and perimeter shots don’t over penetrate.
