[QUOTE="TNDeerGuy, post: 4455402, member: 3702"] I've shot everything over the years: bags, D/M 3D targets, Rinehart targets, Glendel targets, ragbags, Blobs etc... and I believe they each have their purpose and use. For almost 30 years I've been shooting blobs, but will likely not be buying another one (I remember when you could drive down to Mohawk or Shaw carpet Mills and skip the guy on the dock a $10 and get a 4'X6' that was 24"thick and weighed 300lbs at least). They are great targets, but they do have their downside and someone has come up with a better mouse trap--they are heavy, they will wear your carbon arrows thin (which will eventually lead to breaks) if you only shoot the blob. I do not like "The Block" targets, they are cheap made and their longevity is very short for the cost of the product, but they are easily portable. I shoot bag targets on my home range as well, but honestly the only bag targets I like is the Morrell Range Bag and the best way to get them is on a Sunday afternoon when the ASA is packing up--you can get a good one for $40ish if you're patient and look thru the pile. Otherwise, you'll pay $100+ or so for a new one online. If I couldn't get them at the ASA shoots, then I likely would just shoot my 3D D/M's and my BroadForce targets. My preferred 3D target is Rinehart because of their foam density, D/M is really sucking in this department right now, but the ASA shoots D/M so that's what I shoot, but if I didn't shoot competitively or shot IBO, then I would gladly shoot Rinehart targets. My preferred overall combo target is a relatively new one that is gaining traction and the owner of the company is a fellow Tennessean (from my hometown of Soddy-Daisy)--his company is BroadForce targets.
