I bought the Yellow Jacket target and it says for broadheads only. Can anyone tell me why you aren't supposed to shoot field tips into them. I could see it if it was the other way around . What am I missing?
Broadhead only?

I think because of the way the foam wraps around the shaft with a field point on it, you won't be able to get it back out.

Yup, that's it! I had to try it, you know, can't believe the manufacturer. I did get the arrow pulled ( uh, driven back out), but......pita! Once the target has been shot some with BH's, field points pull LOTS easier. Hint: get or build a bag for FP's!

If it's a matter of the foam sticking to the shaft, s[arying the shaft with a silicone spry like Jig A Loo or CRS does make removal easier.
