Home Made Target

#1 Post by M.Hogan » Fri Jun 05, 2009 5:16 pm

Had the day off yesterday. I was so bored.
So i decided to make a Target. The target is made of newspaper which is layered (picture below).
It is about 60cm by 45cm.
With help from woolworths I "borrowed" a shoping trolley, took the top off and straped down the target.

I was just joking I bought if from a recyle centre in Orange fot 2 bucks.
It takes broadheads almost as good as field pionts




(I would NOT steal a woolworths trolly........But maybe a Kmart one :lol: )
