[Ansteorra-archery] Making Target Stands and Butts

[Patrick R]

 For the stands a pressure treated 2X4 should do the trick. I would think a 1x4 would be less expensive but will not last as long. You can do what we did for our baronial stands and make them so they come apart if you are not going to use them often. We replaced the ones used at the YMCA because they were getting all shot up which is why I suggest 2X4s. It does not cost much and only took a couple hours to put six of them together. We have been putting foam backings behind our Saunders mats and it seems to be adding life to the targets.

If you are looking for Saunders target butts, look to Amazon.com.
About $130 and they pay shipping. There are
many different ways to make stands. Right now I dont know of any
on-line plans. Get some 1x4's and go to it.
If you want more info and are going to Steppes Warlord this weekend
look for me at the Archery events and I can
give you more info.

Yours In Service,
Ld. Francois de Lions,
Keeper of the Royal Rounds, Ansteorra.
