We have a selection of archery targets in a zip file which you can download and print out. You can also just as easily Google the words 'printable archery target' and then print out small archery targets on 8x11 paper which you can use as you see fit. Many of the stores listed in the archery equipment section also sell paper targets. Using metal objects like nails can damage your arrows - and if left stuck in the target will damage the arrows of others. The preferred method is to use wooden golf tees (you can buy 50 of them at a dollar store for $1). Please use non metal pins to pin up your target. Routinely archers leave used targets behind when they are done using them for other archers to shoot at. Many of the more experienced archers stop at one of the two Tim Hortons located near the archery range on their way there and then use a coffee lid as their target. In terms of durability, cloth targets last the longest of the three. Paper, plastic or cloth targets are not provided.
