BIGSHOT Iron Man 30 Personal Range Target

I am not being compensated for this review and I purchased the product at the current Amazon price of $239.00. I bought the 30" Bigshot for my twelve-year-old daughter who is just starting the sport.The company's description of this product is accurate- it's flipping heavy. Out of the box, mine weighs 94 pounds. Even with the two carrying handles, it's a bear to move. We use it outside but store it in the garage due to rodents. The two metal handles help but I just wish they were wider for more comfortable weight distribution.My daughter is shooting 40#. Her arrows do not penetrate though. At 70# by brother's arrows eject about four inches out the back. With her only shooting it, I expect durability will be good. Hunters with high draw weights will wear though their targets faster. Arrows pull out fairly easily. Not for Broadhead use.This target does not lend well to paper targets due to the face being slightly beveled from the internal stopping material. This also causes your target pins to frequently dislodge so you'll need to double up on standard target pins or use the longer wire target pins (expensive and only sold usually in four-packs.) My suggestion, make your daughter make them from old wire clothes hangers. All you need are pliers with a wire cutter and some safety gloves (just to be safe.)In conclusion, we use a garden cart to pull the target to its position. When we need the cart, I take the target off. Yes, it sucks if you have to spend $150.00 on a new cart but it works the purpose perfectly, it elevates the target off the ground, and you'll certainly use the cart for other stuff too.

Only 50 or 60 shots so far but the arrows pull so easy, wonderful. Looks well built

Just shot first 40 arrows at this beast of a target. Exactly as advertised. Perfect penetration stoppage. 308fps in the crono this target stopped my micro diameter arrows 3-4 inches deep at 20yds. About 50 percent of the arrows were 'two finger removal' and the other 50percent were about 4 finger removal. Great target would certainly buy again but honestly at this point I don't think I'll have to.This target is HEAVY. Heavy is sort of a good thing here so keep that in mind. Didn't weigh it but I was shocked initially. Where I shoot I can't leave the target permanently so I'll be building a cart for this bad boy but it's completely worth it.

This is a heavy and solidly built target. I shoot every day (total of 225 arrows today for example), so I leave mine on a small flatbed utility cart so can move it to my shooting area with ease. Even with 60# recurve I have never over-penetrated it. So far it's proving to be durable and ARROWS COME OUT OF IT WITH EASE. I occasionally sit other smaller targets on top of it against my backstop. Whenever I kill this one, I'm buying another.

This is the best target I have ever used. I have been shooting for over 30 years and other than a commercial target this is it. It is heavy that’s it’s only downfall. But I expect it to last for years and years.

Indoor Archery practicing compound bow and traditional bow stop the arrow no problem.

Best target!!! I also have 2 outside.

This target is what I thought it would be. My only complaint is that the black is pretty faded and I'm concerned that time outside in the sun is going to make it a lot worse. I expected the targets printed on this to be darker, instead they are pretty faded, the reverse side is just as bad.While not a huge problem from 10 - 20 yards when my 40 year old self is back at 30 to 40 I need as much contrast as I can get.
