  • Patent number: 8876114
    Abstract: The present invention is a three-dimensional archery target that simulates an animal and has multiple primary target zones disposed on a central body section. A front end section which includes a head and a rear end section which includes a tail are interchangeably mounted on the central body section. Similarly, front and rear leg sections are also interchangeably mounted on the central body section so that the central body section can be selectively reversed, thereby changing the orientation of the animal's front to back on the target. By reversing the target's orientation, the designated primary target zones can be changed on the central body section, thereby extending the useable life of the archery target.

  • Patent number: 5503403
    Abstract: A three-dimensional life-size game animal-simulating archery target including a foam body shaped in the form of a game animal, such as a deer, elk, moose, bear, wild boar, etc., and having a target insert receiving recess located in a primary aiming point of the target. A removable target insert adapted for use with broad head arrows, field point arrows, or both, is releasably secured in the recess in the foam body, and a removable body cover placed over the insert and recess to provide a uniform visual appearance to the exterior of the game animal. A three-dimensional game animal archery target system includes a foam body shaped in the form of a game animal together with at least two removable target inserts, one being adapted for use with broad head arrows and the other being adapted for use with target point or field point arrows. Such a system provides the user with the ability to utilize the same target for archery target practice and hunting preparation with both field point and broad head arrows.

  • Patent number: 5002285
    Abstract: An archery target has a free floating central core formed by a plurality of stacked sheets of a tightly woven nylon material. The sheets are oriented parallel to front and back faces of the target, and serve to absorb arrow impact without being penetrated. The central core is completely surrounded by compressed cotton molt packing disposed within a cardboard frame. The frame, compressed cotton, and central core, are contained within a moisture barrier formed by a polyethylene bag. A plurality of layers of nylon mesh are wrapped around the moisture barrier. The nylon mesh has openings greater than 1/4.times.1/4 inches, such that penetrating arrows are unlikely to hit and break strands of the mesh. The nylon mesh is covered by burlap fabric, upon which various target indicia may be provided. The target has a long service life and allows arrows to be easily removed.
