Personal Assessment
I chose the Big Shot target for this review because it is time to start preparing for this upcoming archery season. I just received this target two weeks ago and wanted to share what I’ve experienced thus far. I recently heard about this target from a friend. When I checked out their website the first thing that jumped out at me was the price. While the price seems relatively low, the target is well built and looks like it is made to stand the test of time. The target is rated up to 450 fps and I really enjoy the easy arrow removal from this bag target. The Big Shot Archery Bag is 14 inches wide at the base, so it sits on the ground with no need for target stands. I know the true test of a target is how it stands up over time, but so far I’ve shot many arrows into this target and it has held up great with absolutely not signs of bulging or tearing. The dots on the target are easy to see and have stopped my arrows shooting 275 fps at 5 through 40 yards easily.
Product Limitations
I haven’t had this target long enough to truly test how it stands up to thousands of shots, but from what I’ve seen so far, the target is built very solid and performs great. The Ballistic 450 is made for field points only, so a separate target is necessary when shooting broadheads. Though I haven’t used them, I know Big Shot Archery also provides a line of targets which will accept broadheads.
Recommendation
Based on what I’ve seen so far, I would highly recommend the Ballistic 450 Bag to anyone looking for a well built, durable field point target capable of stopping arrows from today’s high speed bows and crossbows.
