Title: Build that wall
Post by: RGKulas on April 24, 2017, 11:18:00 AM
For archery practice.     ;)    

The wall is built from wood reclaimed from a shed we took down. It measures 8 ½ feet wide x 6 feet tall and has a treated wood deck the is 2 feet deep since the ground is not level.

We made ethafoam, broadhead and field point targets that measure 40" x 34" x 20" deep that fit nicely.

Now when the kids I teach for 4H shooting sports and the archery merit badge come to shoot they wont launch arrows into the woods.

We make and market them ourselves. Any further mention of our target making enterprise gets one in trouble here.

While we kept our day job, we did start a business. Targets are just one component.

We make our targets with varying density layers of ethafoam. The most dense in the center and getting less dense as we move outward.
