Try your local Wal Mart or K mart or similar store. I bought one a few years ago at Wal Mart for less than $40.     Pat

I bought a Delta Backyard Buck from Academy for 59.00 last Spring when they were on Clearance...usually 79.00 ...so check your local Cabala's...Gander Mountain....or other Big Sporting Goods Stores first....then there is always eBay too..

thanks guys, the walmarts here are not very hunter friendly...although the next town over may have something they are more woodsy over there.  i did try ebay and didnt find much but maybe i wasnt searching the right thing... i was typing 3d deer target...you sure would think that some would come up..lol

  The next TBOF shoot in Ocala in August. They always have a silent bid for some of the older targets.

i would think an ear shot would work just fine,behind the ear is the brain.

put an arrow in the brain,you know its going down >:D

Ryan Do a search for R and W targets. I think there in north Carolina. We just purchased 16 new targets from them this spring for our club, they are nicer than a McKenzie and quite a bit cheaper as well.

yes ear shots are the way to go ! pin them to a tree by the ear go up check em over if there not right , pull the arrow out hang a tag in the pre punched hole [check for next year]--------------> kick em in the keaster send em on there way . And off we go to find us another one thats the way we do it  in Mo  >:D yes sir so if your ever huntin in Missourri and you come across a deer with a tag in its ear  its probably one of mine  it will either be a shooter or a passer or one of farmer Bob fine black angus

gander mountian has the best prices (usually) as far a cabelas or bass pro shop. our walmart stopped selling guns, arrows, broadheads,bows, ect. but its worth checking there, especially if you live in a not very populated area. good luck, jimmy.
