Title: target bag cover replacement
Post by: V I Archer on August 29, 2012, 12:17:00 AM
I think I finally have to replace the cover for my target bag.  It's a "super ranger" bag and measures about 3 1/2 feet by 4 1/2 feet.  I can't remember the brand name and the store I bought it from is long gone, I have the bag for at least 11 years.  Anyone know where I can get a bag cover that big?

feed bag from a farmer would most likely work

Morrel targets offers a replacement cover....not sure who else might.

I find it very difficult to find a replacement bag in burlap.  It seems feed no longer comes in these types of bag.  Good luck

I have used Morrell replacement bags on an older Bass Pro bag target, fit wasn't exact but it worked!

The edges on my bag target remain in tact ...so for years now, when the center gets shot out I use burlap (from the fabric store) and put 2 layers on it and I used contact cement to "paste" the edges down (I only re-cover the front and back, not the edeges of the bag).  It works perfectly - not as long lasting as the original bag material, but lasts a season and is dirt cheap.

How about just buying a tarp and wrapping/taping up the bag?  Those 8X8 or 10X10 blue tarps w/ grommet edges are cheap, and should last awhile if kept out of the sunlight/rain.  Paint on some new 'dots' and shoot.
