Best Hunting Archery Compound Bow Targets
Archery Compound Bow
Targets
Compound bows are used for target
shooting, tournaments, home protection,
and hunting. For me, starting about a
month before archery deer season, I start
target practicing so that when I find that monster buck, that I have my A
game on, and have a successful hunt.
It’s important to have a good quality archery target that will stop your
arrow, even if you get a bad shot and you miss. If your target is a smaller
target, it’s good to add a back board of some sort around it, to catch any
bad shot arrows. Even if you are on lots of land, and aren’t worried about
other people being around, you don’t want to risk loosing a ten dollar
arrow, or spend a lot of time hunting a missed shot down. A lot of people
will buy a few bails of hay to use as a backdrop behind the target to stop
the arrow for safety and to stop the arrow so they don’t have to go track
the arrow down.
There are many different types of targets, whether you are looking for a
3D target that has a kill zone that will match the game you will be
targeting, or a block target that you can take with you to do additional
target practice when you are in camp, or a smaller lighter bag target.

3D Archery Targets
3D archery targets are great because they look like the animal you are targeting.
They typically have a kill zone that is removable and replaceable. This type of
target is a bit more expensive, but it will help you get your A game on with each
type of animal. Some people buy some or a few of each of the different types of
animals that they are going to hunt. The 3D targets are more sturdy, and will last
longer because you can simply pop out and replace the area of the target, or kill
zone, after it’s worn out from shooting it.
Block Archery Targets
Block targets are great because they are easy to pick up and take with you on
your hunting trip to get some extra archery practice from camp in your down
time when you are not out hunting. Block archery targets are usually a bit
cheaper than the 3D target, but they do have some very nice 3D targets that have
some high end features that will bring the price up a bit.
Bag Archery Targets
Bag archery targets are the most affordable of all the target types, generally. They
are very lightweight and portable, and can be put pretty much anywhere it’s safe
to target practice at.
