3D Archery Target

When many people hear the word archery they might think of William Tell who shot the apple off his son's head. While apples could be used as an archery target they are not the kind of target most bow and arrow enthusiasts have in mind when thinking about doing a little target practice. In fact, given their choice most archers and bowhunters would prefer a target a little more realistic and inspiring than an apple. That is where the 3D archery target comes in.

3D Archery Target

There is an entire range of 3D archery targets that represent small and large game and even exotic animals such as would be hunted on safari in Africa. These targets are especially designed to be the correct size of the animal presented and are amazingly realistic looking. Many of the animals come in different poses just like you would find them in the wild.

A good 3D archery target has a welded foam core and then several layers of foam. Layering the foam makes it harder for the arrow to penetrate giving the archer more use out of the target.

Many models of the 3D archery target have removal legs, heads, and antlers (when appropriate) for easy storage and transportation. By making these targets easy to transport, you can practice your archery in a more realistic setting as opposed to your back yard or basement.

Choosing a 3D archery target made with self healing foam means that when your arrow is quickly pulled straight out from the target the foam closes in on itself, healing where your arrow has entered and giving the target a longer life than those whose foam easily rips.

As most 3D target manufacturers are made in America, the more common animal archery targets include: White tail deer, bear, coyotes, elk, moose, Caribou, turkey, and woodcock. Many of these targets come in various poses to give the archer practice in hitting the animal’s vital spot from a variety of positions and heights.

Replacement parts for vital parts are available for many of the animal 3D targets, making the parts most often hit by your arrow easy to replace without having to go the expense of purchasing an entire new archery target.

For those who want the adventure of hunting on safari, you may choose targets such as wild boar, hyena, cheetah, lion, and many other exotic animals.

Australia does have a brand of 3D targets by a company called BushBow 3D Archery Targets. They have a feral pig, goat, rabbit, deer and fox 3D targets available.

While 3D archery targets are often used to improve bowhunting skills, they can also be used by the target archer, who simply enjoys the added dimension that 3D targets bring to this sport they enjoy.

3D targets can run in price from around $40.00 to close to $1000 depending on the type and quality of animal you are planning to buy. Considering they are a pretty good sized investment, you will want to take the time to ensure that the 3D archery target you purchase is of good quality and will lend itself to many target sessions.

There are many different types of archery targets on the market today, but the 3D archery target gives you the feel of aiming at something a little more real.
