This is the second site and post I have read about making a target out of old clothes. What a price pint no bells and whistles, just gets the job done. Hunter2

Your material that is used is somewhat similar the the Morrell Yellow Jacket Field Point target which is filled with canvas backed material with foam attached.  Have to take the target apart to get the broad head out.  I like yours better.

Great. Mine is basically the same, only use tripod. Easier to make, more portable. I move 5-6 targets around to get a 'fresh look' at distance.
Phoenix, Vortex and Cyclone; single shot rifles and handguns.

We Canadians have been making our own targets for years, you can stuff that Bag with old tarps from lumber yards or any plastic bag, just make sure it's very tight. I put an old water bed liner in a bag one time and it lasted for years. Cactus
