Avalon Target Foam Eco 90x90x7cm – Complete Target Set with Foam Stand and Face
Construction and Practical Application
The core of this set is a 7 cm thick boss made from layered polyfoam. This material is a favourite among archers because it is very gentle on arrow shafts and makes arrow retrieval much easier. The included foam stand is simple to assemble and very forgiving – if you accidentally hit the stand, your arrow won't be damaged as it would be by a timber or metal frame. This target is primarily designed for recurve and traditional bows with low to medium draw weights.

Care and Maintenance Tips
Setup is a breeze: assemble the stand, slot in the boss, and secure the target face with target pins. To prolong the life of your boss, vary your aiming point. Don't just aim for the gold every time; use the entire 90x90 cm surface to avoid wearing out the foam in a single spot too quickly. Store the target in a dry place and do not leave it out in heavy rain or snow. Crucial Warning: Never use this target for high-poundage compound bows or crossbows! The 7 cm thickness is not enough to stop the high kinetic energy of these weapons, which could lead to pass-throughs, damaged fletching, or injury.
Recommended Bow and Arrow Parameters
This model is optimally designed for the following equipment:
- Bow Draw Weight: Up to approximately 30–35 lbs. Stronger bows may result in pass-throughs.
- Arrow Types: Carbon, aluminium, and wooden arrows with target/field points.
- Top Tip: If using thin carbon arrows, an arrow puller is highly recommended for easier removal.
Recommended Accessories
To get the most out of your set, I suggest adding target pins to securely hold the face in place. A rubber arrow puller is also a life-saver for your hands when pulling arrows from a fresh boss. For extended use, keep a few spare 40 cm or 60 cm paper target faces in your kit bag.
