We have another Novelty target on the outdoor range...
The Texas Heart Shot !!!
Now before I get everbody riled up its more of a novelty target and dont recommend or suggest the shot on a live animal... on the other hand I also dont condone anyone that is confident enough to make that shot and have seen it done effectively with a bow...its just one I dont take...
Broadside or quartering away is my thing!!!

We had this lifesize Elk target for about a dozen years it lasted good, but the entire middle vital section was getting shot out, and before we could patch it up a mini tornado hit the place taking out several of the targets ...the entire mid section disintergrated and couldnt be saved...so we just had the back rump section and the neck/head front section left...
Dang magpies started pecking out the eyes and pooper just before it disintergrated...than of all things a woodpecker decided it would make a good home and pecked out more...hence the big pooper hole...
Now having a $1200 target and a mid section that costs over half the cost of a new one and the old one already 12 years old we just decided to get a new one...but utilizing the parts we had... to make a shootable target this is what we came up with...
Shooters are advised its a novelty target and begginers are advised it is not a recommended shot...
However am curious on your thoughts on a Texas Heart shot on a live animal
