Where are you getting your prices?? ;D 12 X 12 X 14 is $129.99 24 X 24 X 12 is $149.99 The commercial grade targets are in the $300 range but not the home/personal ones. Link for price check: www.spyderwebtargets.com/400.htmlThis for a target that you can not shoot through. Each target is rated for 4500 shots before is begins to show ware. I have shot through all the bag targets I have tried. It is a pain and can tear up fletching. You guys(gals) buy new bows like there was no tomorrow, ;D I will stick with one bow and put my money in arrows and targets.  Ghost |

The Rhinehart is commercial grade...so thats what I am looking at. That said....I will keep an eye on the number of rounds that this target can take and then maybe indulge if it is warranted  |

I have found no bag target that can take that kinds of shooting. When I get the Spider target and run tests on my new (rebuilt) arrows I know how well it will this one will hold up. Ghost |

The Spyder is not rated for broadheads. So, you will have to buy it, and another target. Why bother..buy a Rhinehart, and save some money. |

First I have trouble getting them out of targets, even with arrow pullers  and second I do not experiment with different BHs. I know what I like and what works so why switch? I have a home made BH target that works to test new arrow setups and that is all I need.  I do a lot of field points shooting and I am tired of messing with bag targets that do a poor job of stopping my arrows.  Ghost |

I would get a morrell indoor range target butt myself. 24" x 24" - I have never tried repeated crossbow on a bench shots on one, but if all the dots did begin to shoot thru I would just beat on it a little with a 2X4 and resettle the stuffing - I have two that are shot at here at my shop. One is over 9 yrs old (it was used from another archery shop) and the newer one is 3 yrs old. jm .02, but I am curious on how you like the spyder target  the 18-1 is great for broadheads - they pull out easier than a field pt will in the 18-1. |

But I only get two shot unless I want to reposition my over lay target and then it is another jumping session. ;D jm .02, but I am curious on how you like the spyder target I will not get the the target until after the holidays.......bad time to order any archery equipment. ;D Ghost |
