free bag target

[Justin]

I tried some shrink wrap and I couldn't get it to work as well as I liked. also found my arrows came out pretty hard. I was at our local fish plant and I got 4 of the fiberglass salt bags, they are close to a 4 foot cube I took one and sewed the front and back together so I have a narrow bag to fill and filled it with the other bags...me and the wife have been using it to practice with in the basement

I do the same here. I have a farm so I have lots of feed bags. I once asked for shredded paper from everyone arround. I didnt realize how much wasted paper there was arround here. In one week I ended up with 5, 1 hundred pound feed bags full. It was great for our archery club.

how did the shredded paper work to stop arrows and removal? sounds interesting so I can spend more money on arrows and a 3D target rather then bag targets LOL

The shredded paper works great. Just have to pack it in very tight. Morrells bag target is done with paper, rags, plastic bags and some cardboard. Thats where I got the idea. To buy the target was $80.00 plus shipping. Now we are recycling stuff that people tend to burn or throw out. It stops my arrows from a 70 lb bow and removal is very very easy.
