Does anyone know of a source for an inexpensive dartboard target? A cheep burlap sack or similar with a board printed on it would be ideal.
The wife thinks it would be fun to play some cricket with the bows in the back yard. Sound like a fun game with my kids and nephews also.
I guess anything that promotes more shooting and time with the family is a plus. Any other ideas for archery games you might have or play would be great to hear about!
I've never saw that on burlap. Could make your own with markers w/kids help. Hap
Good question...I have wondered this myself.
I bought templates from someone on eSpay years ago.

Look up "archery tag".

What sort of template? Did you make your own targets?
Markers is a good idea I hadn't considered, thanks Hap.

Wow! That sounds like fun!
I was thinking more of backyard drinking games but I'll have to look into that. Might be a fun game when we go camping with my brother and nephews.

It was a set of masks that you spray paint to create a dartboard on cardboard or a largish target.

I found a printable one online (google printable archery dartboard) printed it, colored it in and glued it on a piece of cardboard. I made 7 or 8 and just put them in front of my other targets. We always have a lot of fun playing cricket!

I bought a Bone Collector rag filled block target and one of the faces was a dart board, wore it out already! I have not seen any others but sure they are out there.
My local archery shop sells paper ones for 1$ a piece. They're paper and you just staple them to cardboard or foam.
You can shoot several games on one before its chewed badly. Pretty cheap entertainment.
If you do get some paper ones, find someone that can laminate(print shop)its faily cheap and they last a long time.
any local shop can order them. the ones we use are about twice the size of a real dart board. printed on heavy paper. i paid about $4 each. they are alot of fun.
I got some on burlap from http://arrolast.com/ a few years ago. don't know if they still have them or still in buseness.

Thanks Tim!
They have a 36" burlap dartboard listed in their price list for $1.75! A few of those should last a long time.
The 1st link from Hummer looks interesting also.
Thanks for all the links, ideas and input from all.
