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. The removable target insert is a substantially cylindrical rectangular or oval, elongate item sized so as to be received within and substantially fill the recess in the foam body and is constructed of either foam for use with broad head arrows or burlap sacks filled with packing material and having a penetration resistant central core for use with field point and target point arrows.
