Quality archery targets are essential for effective practice, skill development, and equipment tuning. At Glenwood Springs Outdoors, we stock a comprehensive range of archery targets designed for backyard practice, competitive shooting, and broadhead tuning, built to withstand thousands of shots while providing easy arrow removal.
Bag Targets - Versatile Practice
Bag targets are among the most popular choices for backyard archery practice due to their affordability, portability, and ability to stop arrows effectively. These targets feature tightly packed synthetic fill material that stops arrows from field points and practice broadheads, multiple aiming points for extended target life, weather-resistant covers for outdoor use, and easy arrow removal that won't damage shafts or fletching. Bag targets work well for compound bows, crossbows, and traditional bows at typical practice distances, making them ideal for casual shooters and serious archers alike.
Foam Block and Layered Targets
Foam block targets use compressed foam layers to stop arrows with excellent holding power while still allowing relatively easy removal. These targets offer long-lasting durability through thousands of shots, replaceable center sections to extend target life, compatibility with field points and some broadheads, and various sizes from compact blocks to full-size competition targets. Layered foam targets are particularly popular for 3D competition practice and backyard ranges where target longevity is important.
3D Targets - Realistic Practice
3D targets replicate the size and shape of game animals, providing realistic practice for bowhunters. These lifelike targets help you practice shot placement on vital zones, estimate yardage on realistic animal shapes, prepare mentally for hunting situations, and develop confidence for field shots. We stock 3D targets representing deer, elk, turkey, and other game species in various poses and sizes. Quality 3D targets feature replaceable vital inserts that extend target life even after hundreds of shots to the kill zone.
Broadhead Targets
Specialized broadhead targets are designed to stop and hold broadhead-tipped arrows while still allowing removal without destroying the target. These targets use layered foam or specialized materials that self-heal after arrow removal, preventing the catastrophic damage that broadheads cause to standard targets. Broadhead targets are essential for tuning your hunting setup and practicing with the actual broadheads you'll use in the field, ensuring your broadheads fly true and impact where you aim.
Youth and Beginner Targets
Targets designed for youth archers and beginners feature large, easy-to-see aiming points that build confidence and encourage proper form development. These targets typically use softer materials that allow easy arrow removal for lower-poundage bows, bright colors and large scoring rings for visual feedback, and durable construction that withstands the learning process. Starting young archers with appropriate targets makes practice more enjoyable and accelerates skill development.
Target Faces and Replacement Centers
Extending target life and maintaining clear aiming points requires replacement target faces and centers. We stock paper target faces in various sizes and styles including NFAA indoor faces, outdoor field faces, and animal vitals overlays. Replacement foam centers allow you to refresh worn bag targets and foam blocks, dramatically extending their useful life at a fraction of the cost of new targets.
Target Stands and Accessories
Proper target presentation improves practice effectiveness and safety. Target stands elevate targets to realistic shooting heights, provide stability in wind and weather, and allow angle adjustments for practicing uphill and downhill shots. We also carry target backstops that catch stray arrows, ground stakes for securing targets, and target covers that protect targets from weather when not in use.
Choosing the Right Target
Target selection depends on your shooting style, practice goals, and arrow types. Bag targets excel for general practice with field points, foam blocks offer durability for high-volume shooting, 3D targets provide realistic hunting practice, and broadhead targets are essential for tuning hunting setups. Our staff can help you select targets appropriate for your bow's draw weight, arrow types, and practice objectives.
