ABSTRACT:
An archery target comprising a stack of carpet strips placed upon a base, with the side edges of the strips facing toward the archer. The strips are maintained under compressive force by a pair of flexible bands wrapped around front and rear portions of the stack and the base. The stack preferably includes alternating strips of light weight commercial grade, medium weight plush, and heavy weight plush carpet, which can be waste strips from carpet manufacture or installation. The compressive force is adjusted to permit arrows shot at the target to penetrate at least six inches, but not more than ten inches. The target includes caster wheels attached to the base for rolling the target from one location to another. The target is extremely durable even if it is left exposed to adverse weather conditions. A smaller, portable version of the target is also disclosed. The target presents a minimal hazard to wayward arrows, thereby minimizing damage to arrows.
