@Montana: Homemade targets are quite popular among outdoor enthusiasts! Many people use different materials to stuff their homemade targets, depending on their preferences and what's available. Some common options include old clothes, rags, hay, straw, foam, or even recycled materials like plastic bags. It's important to choose a material that is dense enough to stop arrows or bullets safely. Remember to always prioritize safety and ensure that your homemade target is secure and won't pose any risks to yourself or others. Happy shooting!

Old clothes are great, an old carpet cut cut up to fit inside works too, but can be awkward getting arrows out again, rheu tend to get snagged on wee strands.
Compressed foam straps has always been my favourite. A lot of foam factories have tons of kept over they will give you for free, off cuts and what not.Montana W

I work for a pool company and the foam pad we put underneath a vinyl liner works great. It’s about a quarter inch thick and you can really pack it in good. I normally put 4 gunny sacks folded in half in the middle of a box, then stuff the pad on each side. Then I tape the box up good and put it inside another gunny sack. The one in the picture was just too big for a gunny sack.

This is one that I made , I just used plastic lumber wrapping (not the kind that’s like a tarp ) and a few foam blocks . The exterior of the target is carpet that’s turned backwards and works amazing . I made it like a wheelbarrow for easy mobility
