Are you in the market for an archery target, but not quite sure where to start?

This buyer’s guide will help you find a target that fits your shooting needs. Here are a few questions to consider before pulling the trigger on a new archery target:

What is your bow’s speed rating?

Knowing your bow’s speed rating—typically listed in feet per second (fps)—can be a major factor in helping you choose a target. If you’re shooting a high-speed crossbow, you need an archery target with a speed rating to match. Better yet, you need a SpyderWeb No Speed Limit Target.

What do you want in a target?

Safety, durability, and ease of arrow removal are three qualities to look for in an archery target. A target that has been constructed with exceptional design integrity and has a high-density interior and a facing that ensures what’s on the inside stays inside. This equates to a higher level of durability, more stopping power, and a safer shooting experience. You also want a target that offers easy, two-finger arrow removal with every shot.

How do you know if you’re buying a quality target?

Reading verified customer reviews is one of the best ways to tell if you’re buying a quality target. These can be found on a company’s website, Amazon, and on their Facebook business page. For example, SpyderWeb Targets currently have 262 verified customer reviews (and counting!). Of those, 96% indicated a 100% customer satisfaction rating. That’s a solid indication of a quality archery target.

What else should you know before pulling the trigger on a target?

Price to quality ratio. There are plenty of times when it's wise opt for the cheaper version of something. But not when it comes to archery targets. Choosing a target is one of those times where it makes more sense to shell out some extra cash and invest in a higher quality target. A target that will last you a lifetime of shooting. A target that reigns supreme when it comes to ease of arrow removal and safety. A SpyderWeb Target.
