Archery Hunters- What Do You Use

It won't be long and I'll be shooting the bow and setting up the tree stands.


My question is, what do you bow hunters use for target practice (deer target, box target), and is what do you set behind it in case you miss? I'm going to assume that 99% of you never miss the target, no matter how far back you are, but for that 1%, is there a combination of straw bales and carpet you use? something else? I'd like to keep all my arrows, and keep them undamaged if i can.

My brother and I got into a bunch of shooting last year where we shot from all over and different distances, different heights, etc.. 1 arrow each. We occasionally miss due to new area, misjudged distances etc, and we lost a couple arrows. I'd like to prevent that if i can.

Lets here it.

I tend to prefer the Heavy Bow and 6 Explosive-Tipped Arrows.

Yeah, but I hate field-dressing them. They always stink, terribly. The good news is if you have their heads mounted, you don't have to worry about that nasty brain-matter getting in the way.

I'd hate to wreck my arrow upon entry though.. There's a good chance it will hit a broken shank or a patch of bullets in there....

I think i'll just stick to Bronco's fans. They're fatter and still plenty easy to call in.

I'm not a bow hunter but I have a Pearson that's probably 15+ years old. A friend gave it to me. I'd taken him hunting in N. MO and he shot his first rooster. Anyway the other day I showed it to another buddy of mine who is very experienced in bow hunting and he said it was good to go. I thought maybe it would need to be restrung or something since I've had it sitting around for 15 years but my buddy said no. Any other opinions on that?

Personally, I think anybody renting your property should restring it for free and possibly even buy you a whole new bow.
