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.
This is an amazing target. Easy arrow removal as well as arrow stopping power. Very lifelike with the added X-Ray features. This is a tool that is very simple but effective. My daughter loves shooting with me and seeing where the arrow hit in regard to the vitals. I would highly recommend this target to anyone but mainly deer hunters.
I'm a traditional archer. I have managed to assemble a range with a wide variety of targets. This brand of target seems to be the best alternative to the budget 3ds or bag targets vs the high end competition targets. With bows in the 180 to 207 fps range and field points ,durability, stopping power and weather resistance are superior to the ultra cheap budget 3d targets. I can't comment on how high Pou dage compound bows and skinny arrows would affect these targets.
