Im gonna need to take away Chris's Crayon! Thanks for watching sir!

the best target i have used has been compressed cardboard layers , we used all thread and 2x12 frame and a couple hundred layers of cardboard stacked and compressed with the all thread . the layers stop the arrows with friction between layers and lasts for years . no scuffing or residue on the arrow , just do not use waxed cardboard the arrows will not come out . the stacked cardboard target we used had paper targets pinned to the front for practice for an indoor dot shoot . use a good foam deer target for broadhead practice , they have trouble pulling out of the cardboard and inserts pull out .

I was told by a bow tech at Cabelas to just hang carpet. Hung it, shot it with 340 grain field point from a Mission Craze. As predicted, blew right through! DO NOT USE CARPET!

horizontal velocity is independent of vertical! same stopping power, because the arrows enter at a different angle they travel different distances thru the rubber, therefore different penetration! great video my man, thank you! i am going to look into picking up some 2x4 and a rubber mat tomorrow!

Yup they work for crossbow as well but getting the bolts back out is not easy! I hung one on a similar frame for a backstop at our indoor range but you really don’t want to miss the target lol

We put some of those mats up last spring as a backstop. . .haven't had an arrow go through yet. . . great video.

I need an opinion, I was asked this evening if a 1/4" rubber mat would work behind a hay bale if the arrows are target arrows fired off of a 30# draw fiberglass bow? I thought that is would be plenty of thickness but would like to hear your input.

If you're saying the horsemat can damage your arrows why are you shooting your arrows into them lol? I shoot the same exact arrows. FMJ 340 11.3 5mm and I have a horse mat I use as a backstop as well. The horsemat I use is less than 3/4" thick. It's like 7/8". Since mine is thinner and if the FMJs are made of aluminum and durable material, do you think my horse mat would still damage the arrows?
