The Morrell High Roller is a 6-sided cube built from high-density, self-healing foam. It stops arrows up to 450 FPS from compound bows and crossbows, making it one of the few targets that handles both broadheads and field points equally well. The self-healing property means broadhead cuts close back up, extending the target’s life well beyond standard bag targets. Users report that mechanical broadheads from 400 FPS crossbows stop cleanly, and the foam seals the entry hole immediately after extraction.

The 21 bullseyes spread across six sides give you tons of shooting real estate. The EZ-tote carrying handle makes transport simple, and the 12-pound weight is light enough to move but heavy enough to stay stable in a breeze. Arrow pull effort is moderate — denser than a bag target but significantly easier than many budget foam blocks. The foam resists weather fading and rain damage, holding up to outdoor storage far better than synthetic bag targets.

The slight downside is weight. At 12 pounds it’s not the lightest target in this guide, but that density is exactly what gives it the stopping power for broadheads. The price sits at the premium end, but the longevity — potentially years of broadhead use — makes the cost-per-shot much lower than cheaper targets that need replacement after a season.

The Rinehart 18-1 is the gold standard for broadhead tuning and hunting prep. This 15-inch cube gives you 18 distinct shooting faces, each with visible aiming zones. The solid signature-series self-healing foam stops broadheads up to 500 FPS, which covers virtually every production crossbow on the market. Long-term reviews show users getting 7 years of broadhead use from a single target, a testament to the durability of the self-healing material.

The 18-1 is designed specifically for broadhead verification. The dense foam shows the exact angle of arrow impact, making it invaluable for bare-shaft tuning and confirming broadhead flight before hunting season. Users report no pass-throughs even with heavy 550-grain arrows and 150-grain cut-on-contact broadheads. The compact size and carry handle make it easy to pack for hunting camp or transport to the range.

The trade-off is extraction effort. Broadheads penetrate deep into the dense foam, and removal requires significant pulling force, especially after repeated shots into the same zone. The paint on the target faces can also wear off relatively quickly under heavy broadhead use. It’s not the ideal target for daily high-volume field point practice — save the broadhead side for tuning sessions and swap to a bag target for volume shooting.

The Delta McKenzie MAX SPEEDBAG is purpose-built for the fastest crossbows on the market. Its 525 FPS rating handles even the most aggressive modern crossbows with room to spare. The 24x10x24-inch bag uses a dense synthetic fill that stops 450-grain bolts at 370 FPS with less than 7 inches of penetration. Users report two-finger arrow removal, making it one of the easiest high-speed targets to extract from.

The dual-sided design features high-contrast graphics on one side and a grid-style calibration target on the other. The 50-pound weight keeps it planted during shots, and the built-in hoisting loops make transport manageable despite the heft. The nylon outer fabric holds up well to repeated field point impacts, and the weather-resistant construction resists UV fading and moisture damage.

The critical limitation: this bag target is designed for field points only. Broadheads will cut through the nylon outer layer and shred the internal synthetic fill, significantly reducing the target’s lifespan. If you’re exclusively shooting field points from a high-FPS crossbow, this is an outstanding choice. For broadhead shooters, it’s a hard pass — stick with the Morrell or Rinehart foam blocks for broadhead compatibility.

The Morrell Yellow Jacket Dual Threat uses fused cellular foam technology with offset bullseyes to handle both field points and broadheads. The 350 FPS rating is lower than many targets in this guide, but it’s accurate for its intended use: compound bows and moderate-speed crossbows. Users report that it stops fixed-blade and mechanical broadheads without pass-throughs, and the fused foam resists the kind of internal shredding that layered targets suffer.

The weather-resistant construction is a real bonus. The surface resists rain and UV damage, and the foam won’t absorb moisture like bag targets. The overall weight is minimal — barely a pound — making it exceptionally portable. The 32 bullseyes spread across four sides give you plenty of aiming options, and the offset bullseye technology distributes impact wear across more foam, extending the target’s usable life.

The low weight is also the biggest drawback. The target is light enough to get knocked over by a powerful crossbow bolt, especially at close range. You’ll need to anchor it on a solid base or place it on the ground. Arrow extraction requires significant strength — many users recommend an arrow puller, especially for broadheads that dig deep into the dense cellular foam. It’s a solid mid-range option for shooters using crossbows under 350 FPS.

The Delta McKenzie Speedbag delivers 475 FPS stopping power at a mid-range price. The 24x24x10-inch bag is filled with a high-density synthetic material that handles compound bows, recurves, and crossbows. Users report that 400 FPS crossbow bolts stop without pass-throughs, and arrow removal is genuinely easy compared to dense foam blocks. The 45-pound weight keeps it stable in windy conditions, and the built-in hoisting loops make it manageable to move.

The dual-sided design gives you bold aiming points on one side and a 2-inch calibration grid on the other. The graphic contrast is excellent for long-range shooting, and the nylon outer fabric resists UV fading and weather damage. Field point shooters will appreciate the easy extraction — bolts come out with minimal effort, reducing fatigue during high-volume practice sessions.

This bag target is designed for field points and target points only. Broadheads will cut through the nylon outer layer and shred the internal synthetic fill. The target will still stop broadhead bolts, but the internal damage accumulates rapidly, and the bag fabric will develop holes. For shooters who exclusively use field points, the Speedbag offers outstanding value. For broadhead shooters, this is not the right choice.

The Black Hole 4-Sided target uses a patented open-layer design that stops arrows through friction rather than compression. The crossbow-specific 16x16x14-inch size is rated for 375 FPS bolts. The 4-sided design offers contrasting aiming points on all sides, with closed wrapped sides for field points and open-face layered sides for field tips, broadheads, and expandables. The open-face design allows broadheads to pass between layers rather than cutting through them, which extends target life compared to traditional bag targets.

Arrow removal is feasible but not effortless. Users report that 400 FPS bolts require a rubber jar opener or arrow puller for extraction — the friction-based design that stops the arrow also holds it firmly. The target weighs 13 pounds, making it far more portable than the heavy bag targets in this guide. The carry handle is functional, and the overall footprint is compact enough for backyard or garage practice.

The 375 FPS rating is the limiting factor. Crossbows shooting above that velocity risk pass-throughs, especially with broadheads that penetrate deeper than field points. The layered design also has a finite lifespan — repeated broadhead shots eventually wear down the internal layers, reducing stopping power. It’s a solid entry-level choice for moderate-speed crossbows, but shooters with 400+ FPS bows should look at the Morrell or Rinehart options.

The Hurricane H21 punches above its price point with a 520 FPS rating that rivals premium targets. The Tri-Core construction uses multiple layers of synthetic material to handle the extreme velocities modern crossbows generate. Users report that 405 FPS bolts stop with minimal penetration, and the dense core prevents pass-throughs even at close range. The high-visibility orange design with white grid background and circular aiming points makes target acquisition easy at longer distances.

The off-center deer vital zones on the back extend target life by distributing impact points away from front aiming areas. The heavy-duty handle makes transport manageable despite the bag’s robust construction. The 21x15x20-inch size provides a generous shooting surface, and the bag is heavy enough to stay in place during most shots.

This is a field-point-only target. Broadheads will cut through the outer fabric and damage the internal core material. Users report that broadhead impacts create 2-inch holes in the casing and accelerate internal degradation. The bag also tends to tip over if hit near the top edge, and the outer cloth and handle may rip over time under heavy use. For budget-minded field point shooters with high-speed crossbows, the H21 delivers exceptional stopping power per dollar.
