THE MOST DURABLE TARGET EVER? *Rineheart* (Target review #5)

[@bradleynixon3839]

Pro tip for this target: ( I own two of them, and lots of other rinehart targets) Instead of just pulling the arrow, twist it first. You will feel the arrow release, and then they pull really easily.

[@ttschannel875]

Thanks

[@AllSportsStations]

Another pro tip for this target: rub a bar of soap on the first 12" of your arrow...don't go overboard, you will see a nice little smear...it will make it way easier to pull out, a kid can do it

[@AaronC.]

Hey Kramer! Been watching you for some time now, and just wanted to say that I'm actually taking the archery course necessary for being an archer. You were one of the reasons I started loving archery so much!

[@sarafayelawton652]

Thank you Kramer for putting in all this work for us! God bless

[@alaskace24]

I have had one for about 15 years give or take a year… always keep outside in the weather -40 to 90 temperatures in alaska.. still the only target I have.. and it’s still going strong. I am a firm believer in this target

[@davisstellman]

My reinhardt target lasted me for 7 years shooting hundreds of shots a day with a 45-50lb recurve before I wore through it. Those targets are phenomenal for durability

[@travisbenson5902]

Mind me asking which one you had?

[@davisstellman]

@travisbenson5902 i had that 6 sided block target. It used to have a removable face piece but I never once replaced it. Worked wonderfully until it gave out

[@sheyanderson4371]

I lost a couple inserts in a target like this, I prefer hot melt over glue, and stopped buying them. Father in law recommended a $5 lube tube for the arrows and to try again. That extra $5 made all the difference and haven't lost another insert or had any issue pulling arrows out of these targets since. You can't beat these types of targets, especially if you practice with broadheads often. These are the best target review arrows on YT. Thank you, it's greatly appreciated.

[@actual5186]

What is a lube tube? Please explain

[@sheyanderson4371]

@@actual5186 - AAE is just the one I have. It’s a tube that can attach to a hip quiver, and has an opening in the top to insert your arrows that coats them. You can get a handful of shots usually before having to re-apply. (BTW It was $5 a couple years ago when I bought mine just for the tube and no refill bottle.)

[@RFTwo]

After years of trying most of the major targets on the market, I’ve settled on Morrell targets. Specifically, the Supreme Outdoor Range bags, and the plain white Range Cubes for indoor use. I don’t anticipate I’ll ever go back to other targets as my main shooters. I do have two 3D deer that I brush up with before season; those are both Delta Macs. Oh, beware of the round, throwable Field Target from RH. I don’t advise anybody shoot at that target more than once; then retrieve their arrow. The target moves very easily, and it’s quite common to hit other arrows that are already in the target and break them off…learned the hard way. Mine is now a doorstop for my patio.

[@vinnycaruso1166]

My dad had this target since before i was born. Im 17 and now im still shooting at it til this day. And its not going anywhere soon

[@flyfin108]

i made an mistake and got one for ~400fps crossbow, some people still recommend it, most likely for the laughs. here is my findings: 1. it does not cure, nada, zero, non what so ever. Just for the sake of it i took broadheads and shot rectangular chunk off from it, i let it sit there for months and it was still totally lose. 2. i took screwdriver and poked it full of holes to simulate number of shots, it did pretty much nothing 3. you ruin arrows shooting into it, it wears em really fast, both impact and friction effects carbon shafts, crumble and wear 4. do not shoot field tips into it with any crossbow, or if you do, use larger diameter tip than the shaft is, this prevents most of the welding 5. no amount of grease will help you with welding 6. use large broadheads, not ones which has pointy thinner than shaft 7. do not use broadheads that has removable blades, 18-1 loves to eat em 8. makes sure insert is tighly glued, it will most likely come lose anyway due impacts, and it will be eventually eaten, along with your 70$ broahdhead 9. alumium shafts does not weld into it and are really easy to pull out. so if you got one and want to shoot it, use those 10. it stops lead fairly well

[@frankangemi]

Right on your videoes!! Great job Kramer 👏 👍

[@sdwoodwa]

We have shooters of all abilities in the house. Including very small youth. Could you do a quick video or short on what the minimum pull a target will accept. Ive had kids arrows bounce off balistic bags and 3d targets. Which is very unsafe for beginners.

[@HaroldIkerd]

For 12-20lbs draw a cardboard box or knitted pet food bag stuffed with discarded clothes works. I've got an old Morrell target that is filled with old jeans and such. The only advantage it has over the chicken feed bags is that it has a handle. 😂

[@Ihwaz13]

We have two of these on our range at my club (mostly traditional archers) and the have so far lasted close to ten years. They are starting to become to damaged, but will still catch arrows even from compound bows. The first thing to go with them was actually the rope.

[@sebastienraymond3648]

I suspect that using wooden arrows with glue-on field tips with this target is not a clever idea, because it's likely that some of the points will remain inside for a long time..

[@aldiun16]

Good thing this guy didn't 😂

[@tonydawson8908]

Use “Arrow Lube”.

[@jerrykinder2551]

Arrow removal is easier if you use a little bit of arrow lube which you should be doing with all foam targets anyway

[@danroseveare3090]

Swipe an unscented bar of soap across and all around the front few inches of field point and shaft. It doesn't have any effect of flight but usually makes it super easy to remove field arrows from targets, including 3D. The little clockwise twist to "unstick" the arrow from the target is critical before pulling on any target.

[@ckiefner715]

I have one and shot mostly broadheads with mine. Crossbow, trad bows and compound.

[@jaydensankey2301]

I've had my rinehart for over 12 years and still shootable that's with a 70lb compound now 84lb, as the targets aged arrow removal is easy as, ive just recently grabbed all the bits of foam thats fallen out over the years mixed it with silicone and repacked/repaired it and still going, i mainly use it on trips though

[@paruco66]

I really love my Rinehart 18-1 target. I shoot wooden as well as carbon arrows on it. To my opinion you can’t get better value for the money. Great product 🤩, highly recommendable 👍🏼🏹😊🎯.

[@frankiebob7345]

I agree with every word said. Add the angle faces allow shooting down hunting practice. This target is very expensive. A lower density less expensive target like they use to sell would be great for trad but the market is geared to Compound archery which require higher density foam.

[@Atheistbatman]

The morrell dice is a great one. I just got and have put 4-500 and it’s holding great. I use the single spot at distance and multiple spots close in so I don’t ruin arrows And it makes a cool footstool in my den…very cool

[@alysker]

I wish i lived in a place where i could easily practise. You can only shoot at ranges or your backyard in the Netherlands but all clubs are full and i live in a big city. Shooting the bow and arrow has been my passion for so long

[@ehyman4415]

Even with xbow like Bradley said. slight twist and they slide right out.

[@knifesharpeningnorway]

Rinehart 18-1 is very good but its also little dangerous as it can easily deflect arrows if you hit the slanted side and trust me that can go sideway quick. I wish it was a complete square shape so it dont deflect arrows. Other than that it takes arrows on arrows on arrows. But i only shoot field points I so want to test your strings what do the shipping cost to norway?

[@DS-ip4ns]

Yellow jacket bag target in a hanging set up, literally ounces to pull out, and I use a crossbow

[@whitewiskerz2577]

They are fantastic.

[@YoureSoVane]

Magnum double D arrow puller. Worth the money, especially for targets like this.

[@coreyharvey6442]

I understand for comparison sake you pull the arrow. For regular shooting rotate the arrow quarter turn clockwise and thell pull enfantly easier.

[@gordonneverdies]

Seems like a good broadhead target. They seem to come out a bit easier, depending on the style of course.

[@dagwood1327]

My son let me borrow his cross bow and target. I put the target up on a stack of lumber in a covered shed. I didn’t figure the chicken factor. Our chickens love foam. The ate the outer layer. I’m going to need to buy a replacement.

[@christiankammer2379]

Thanks again! I was really curious how this one would fare. And the classic straw target...

[@thomashoran8072]

I’d like to see the straw one as well

[@rozell2820]

Will you be testing a bag target?

[@Qui-Dad-Jinn]

That'd be a good one to see.

[@claybeisser8329]

You need to test a big shot target little expensive but worth every penny and no matter how fast your bow you can pull the arrow with 2 fingers

[@Elliot-nu1bb]

I’m getting this target tmw for my birthday, and i shoot a 35lb bow! Should last me about 3 or more years!

[@HaroldIkerd]

Any chance you could test FlexFoam-iT repair on one of the targets? Cheers, h

[@ZephrusPrime]

A good home target that has a blend of durability and easy pulling is the BIGshot Iron Man 24". Not for broadheads though.

[@LogicJab]

Learned the hard way with Rinehart targets : arrow Lube is your friend

[@reapergrim76]

Very interesting! 😀

[@chrisruzsa2798]

Lol. Grease the shafts they will aline right out, they should tell you that. But its a trick that works. Also thats meant for crossbows especially when you get into proper hunting weights because no target stops a crossbow except that one and even then it’s buried to the vanes. Which is good. The deeper you get on a target the better chances of a pass through on a animal.

[@MrRourk]

What happens if you shoot it with a Rolan Snake?

[@The_Judge300]

I think the Rineheart 18-1 is a great target in many ways, but I really hate it when it comes to getting out my arrows from it when I shoot my 70 or even worse my 80lbs compound with a 32" DL. Yes, this target can last many shots, but pulling my arrows out from it is no fun at all. No matter what method I use. I never shoot broadheads into any of my newer targets as they shred them apart very quickly.

[@boomerrangerron]

Looks like it's durable, and eventually the more you shoot it the easier it becomes to pull out the arrows. But really what happens when see shoot a crossbow doing north of 350 FPS? Some are near 400 FPS, and we have a bear of a time getting our bolts out of 3 D targets! And how about both mechanical and fixed broad heads? I'd love to see that video.

[@tomp.8875]

Check out the stronghold targets. Best of the markets. Long lifetime and you pull even compound arrows with two fingers out

[@outdooradventureswtreyguzy8527]

You should try some foam moral targets

[@gregoryminniear8184]

Twist the arrow first makes it easier to pull.

[@sprk11]

well that target is everything but cheap. Here in Canada they are over 200 bucks. That said I won mine at the raffle portion of a local shoot. It's an awesome addition to the back yard range. I have the black out layered foam a couple field logic targets and some other cheaper vermin set . They say will last for over a 1000 shots well that because you only every 10th shot LOL.

[@Hellhound9918]

Man i live in Wyoming i wish i knew about this channel and job opportunity when I lived in Fort Collins key

[@RonKelmell]

A piece of glue backed carpet, 24 inches wide, 10-12 feet long nicely rolls into a game size torso. Held in shape by spray adhesive or a couple of pieces of 550 cord, roll loosely for a little 'give' when hit.....hung on a limb, simply on the ground,. Handles my 450 grain Gold Tips out of a 50 lb. recurve, sharp field points, pulls easily as penetration seldom exceeds 3-4 layers of the carpet. Roll "torso" a quarter turn when wear begins to show. 1000s of shots before turning might be necessary. Spray paint for rain resistance, (cover with tarp')? Cost? Remnant pieces are very inexpensive at any carpet store..

[@matthewdee6023]

"...longevity and durability...." - exactly what I'm after, but will wait for the rest of the reviews before buying. Again, thanks for these reviews!

[@jaysonallen3100]

My 7 year old son knows to twist arrows before trying to pull. 😊

[@eastvantony]

thanks!

[@joeditz48]

Ramcat makes nice field points for pulling arrows out of foam

[@claytonwebb9515]

I’ve only used this target for a 375 lb crossbow it sucks

[@ThirdLawPair]

Man, pulling out the arrows puts more strain on my shoulder joints than shooting them does. I think I'll avoid this one.

[@k1t1p2]

Your comments about pulling arrows out is inaccurate. Trying to pull an Easton Axis out versus a Carbon Express Red is completely different. A finish on the arrow makes them slide out like butter in the Rinehart. You can also spray some lubricant on the arrow and they come out easier. Rinehart is the absolute bomb! I have the target you tested and now a 3D elk. Absolutely love them.

[@vinnyjhawer7847]

I want the job, yes please. However, I love in London. Any chance we can work out a private jet to sweeten the deal 🙏😇

[@rockyoutdoors2020]

Hey I’m down to work for u but I don’t live in Colorado I live in Wisconsin but it’s still pretty close my brothers was in the military and he drove 16 hours a way to get to his military base and I live right bam in the middle of the state I need a job and I love archery.

[@franklinfx]

Big shots last longer with broadheads

[@yourmomma2995]

the 18 in 1 is the best i have used, it held up for a couple years with A LOT of broadheads, but mine is shot out now. i recently bought a delta big 8 target and its doing ok so far, i still think i prefer the 18 in 1. here is a free tip, wax your arrows with car wax, it makes a huge difference in arrow removal.

[@mickyd6664]

I left mine in the sun of front seat of a car an it's perfect

[@raymondjones6024]

Easton Full metal jackets pull out better I get 3yrs to 4yrs of steady pounding vs the block targets that last 6months well worth the extra few dollars.

[@tannervanasten]

compare to the sevr target

[@jacekwisniewski9711]

ca 18kilo shots and the cube went completely bust

[@HuntsT]

Lube your shaft before jamming it in the target. This is foundational in human evolution. Every man with a shaft should know this already.

[@sigmanarchery54]

It is definitely a good build but the ease of getting the arrow out not so good. And for the money. 👎🏼👍🏼 mixed!! God bless my friend

[@-fazik-3713]

Bulldog targets please!

[@JoeTheBeanVR]

Endless You are a compound shooter you do not need 60 pounds

[@kendion4597]

Wait till u see what's inside the bag targets. They stick burlap sacks with trash. One of mine had cut off pieces of fiberglass stuffed in there and other random pieces of foam and kljust real throw away junk. They are all made like that. The bags are a rip off!!! It's stuff u throw away .. it's en environmental issue
