This is a very sturdy target that can withstand the weather and also thousands of arrows. Thanks for watching!

You maybe should have screwed that frame together rather than nail it?
@@nickpezzello3066 I screwed the last one, but I have a ton of nails and decided to use them. I toe nailed most of them. Time will tell, thanks for watching!
@@TheCarolinacadmanOutdoors I hope it holds well for you. Let us know please.
@@nickpezzello3066 If I were to use screws again, I would use stainless. Some of the screws I used before rusted and when I went to take them out the head broke off, and they were outdoor rated screws. Thanks.
l learned a lot when I saw this - I'll probably go with Goodwill clothes so I don't have to cut carpet. I'm going to put wheels on it so I can roll is out of my knife shop. Now if we only had higher deer densities in Maine I''d be all set.
Good luck in the woods, and thank you so much for watching!
We thank you for the video. It’s the first one I’ve seen that used carpet material for filler. I honest do not remember getting an email and that picture, but I did have Covid 2x. You are correct I. The fact that old clothing works best. You don’t have to spend all that time cutting the carpet and I believe the clothing does a better job stopping arrows.
Thanks for watching!
CarolinaMan, thanks for the content! You da man! 😊
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for sharing look fantastic.
Thank you sir, and thanks for watching!
Good video and explanation, thanks for sharing!!!
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
great video. Just starting in archery and need all the help I can get.
Just so you know, it's going on two years old and is holding up great. Thanks for watching!
Loved it ...Old School hammer and nails....
yep, every now and again. thanks for watching!
Yep, sometimes. I have an old Hilti framing gun I was about to use but it blew a seal, have to rebuild it (again). But the old 20 oz got it done! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for this video. Great idea.
Thanks, and thanks for watching!
Great video!! Thanks is for this!!
You ain't kidding about the lumber!! I had to rebuild my Mom's dock deck... I MAY have invented so e new curse words when dealing with the lumber!!
It's a challenge for sure. Thanks for watching!
Awesome target.
Thank you sir, and thanks for watching!
Nice target
Thank you. It works really well too. Thanks for watching!
Thank you.
Thank you for watching!
Handy tip. If you put another target on the back, then 2 people can shoot at the same time....
From a safety point of view I wouldn't recommend the two people shooting at the same time! I do see the humor, but it does have a target on each side, so you can turn it around to reduce wear or have a different target. Thanks for watching!
Nice job. Nice target. About how many sgft of carpet did it take?
It's going to depend on the thickness of the carpet you use. I think mine took around 130 pieces. Works out to around 345 sq ft. But that's on mine. Different carpet will compress differently. Thanks for watching!
It's been a while, but I think it was around 330 square feet. Thanks for watching!
Good video.
Is hard to pull out the arrows ?
Actually, it's not hard at all. You can get the skins from thirdhandarchery.com. Thanks for watching!
What are the internal dimensions of the box? What do I need to cut the carpet too?
I intend to buy the lumber from Lowe’s ,I will let them cut the lumber what is the length of the sides and top and bottom?
I'm pretty sure all the dimensions are in the video for future reference. You need 2 pieces of 2x12 36" long, and 2 pieces 33" long to build the box which is 36" x 36" outside dimensions. Cut the carpet pieces 11 1/2" (the width of a 2x12) x 33" to fit inside. Hope this helps, thank you for watching!
How's the wear on the arrows from being shot into the carpet? As a retired floor guy, that carpet backing is very rough. Seems like it would be too aggressive on the arrows.
Defiantly gonna give it a try, maybe I'll just dedicate a set of arrows for this style of target. Might even try layered carpet padding instead.
I shoot gold tip arrows, never seen any damage even after several thousand shots. They need to be cleaned with some acetone occasionally, the carpet backing leaves a film on them after a while. Thanks for watching!
I think the padding might work too if its compressed enough.
I shoot gold tip arrows and they have withstood thousands of shots into this target. Thanks for watching!
U could of used a electric knife cutter . I found out tht was easier than wht u used
If I ever build another one I'll give that a try, thanks a lot, and thank you for watching!
How heavy is that thing?
Well I don't know exactly. It's heavy enough that it doesn't wiggle when you shoot it! I use a hand truck to move it when I need to, which isn't often. Thanks for watching!
I think I would have used screws instead of nails especially with the amount of compression you had to do
Maybe I should have, but it's holding up fine so far. Thanks for watching!
do you have a link to the target skins you used?

Would this work with crossbows? I can no longer shoot a regular bow.
Yes sir, works great with crossbows. Thanks for watching!
@@TheCarolinacadmanOutdoors Thanks for the reply. We are having the carpet removed from our house and now I know what to do with it. Plus more practice time is always a good thing.

@@jeffclark9500 good luck, and thanks again for watching!
jesus dude, you need to be a lot more careful with that angle grinder
You might be right, it's easy to get too comfortable with a power tool that you've been using for over 50 years. That's why its always the "experts" that loose fingers on table saws and such. I'll try to do better next time! Thank you so much for watching!
