Practical Advice for Shooting and Care

When shooting at this 3D fox, I recommend using standard field points. The material is designed so that the foam "heals" after the arrow is removed. If you want your fox to last for years, rotate your shot placement and avoid leaving it sitting in deep water or mud, even though it is waterproof.

Fun Fact: Did you know that the red fox is a member of the dog family and lives across almost the entire northern hemisphere? Using this 3D target helps you practice range estimation in natural terrain, bringing a piece of the wild to your training.

What to avoid:

• Never use broadheads! These hunting tips have blades that slice the foam and will permanently destroy the target's self-healing properties.
• Do not shoot from extremely powerful crossbows at point-blank range (under 10 yards) to prevent over-penetration and unnecessary stress on the foam structure.

Recommended Accessories:

For maximum comfort, I suggest getting an arrow puller (rubber grip), which is a lifesaver if your arrows are waxed or you use a very heavy bow. Target pins are also useful to secure the fox to the ground, and arrow lube will make pulling arrows from the foam even smoother.

Suitable Arrows for 3D Target Shooting

To ensure the best experience and protect your target, choose the right ammo:

• Material: Carbon arrows are ideal due to their stiffness and smooth surface, which creates less friction heat in the foam.
• Point: Use only field points or bullet points with a diameter that matches the arrow shaft exactly (to avoid a "step" that tears foam upon removal).
• Spine: Must match your bow's draw weight. A properly spined arrow ensures a clean entry into the 3D animal.
