Took about two hours. But it's on. I have some videos too.
After it was all finished I took a spray paint can lid and put it on the doe and nailed it. Come on opening day.

Nice, how far, what draw weight, give details.
 
 
Hey what happened here?
Look like you see dead people, or miss the target and got the cat from nextdoor.

No my friend's Jake's dog was to the right of the target, then after I released she ran right under the target. And I was Wooah!

I really like your target. Where did you get that? Or is it home made?
If so what did you use. I was looking for something like that, but couldn't find anything like that.
 
Second pic is sick, one day after some significant practice. I'm hoping to be able to pull that off.

Its home made. Its a 4feet by 4feet 2x12 box. stretch carpet on one side and nail it down. take 30 precut carpet peices and 20 precut carpet paddings. carm it all in the 4x4 frame. I use a ratchet strap to pull it all down nice and tight, then put the outer cover on and nail it down. for the dart board its a little more complicated. I use 7 templates for the lines and pie shapes. I'll try to sit down and write a better way of building one shortly. They really hold up well. I have built 5 sofar. we have 3 cricket toutnies a year for chairty.
 
yeah as for the robin hood, that was my first at 40 yards. I have done it a few time since but now just pull the arrows apart and keep on shooting. I saved the first one.
 
also check if the R100 tournie is close and go shoot it. 100 targets and its normaly a good shoot.

That's awesome, I really don't need anyting that definitive I belive, maybe I'm wrong. I would love to Robin Hood a couple and last night I was stacking them on top of each other within a half inch. Will your target handle broadheads?
I really enjoy the DIY stuff. And your setup is just awesome.
