Hey guys .....Just thought I would let you know that I recently bought one of Bull Dogs Archery Targets. The "plus" model with the big advertising across the front that says LIFETIME WARRANTY. Well I shot at it for about a month (indoors) now with my Mathews No Cam (not a fast bow) i get about 275 fps I get passed arrows on every single shot now ruining my blazer vanes. I rarely shoot closer then 40 yards !!!!!!! I contacted Bull Dog and they said to send a picture. I did and they wont warranty it. Absolutely no reason. The contact there just did nothing to help. So just a warning......dont buy them. Junk and terrible customer support.

I'm pretty happy with my regular bulldog, not the plus filling...interesting report though, I hope I never need to attempt their warranty

I've had my bulldog target for years, thousands of arrows and it still stops them like brand new. sorry to hear about your negative experience!

Rhinehart 18 in 1 is a good Broadhead target and portable too. Morrell makes a decent field point target as well. Many make their own target stuffing a bag with rags (clothing) or shrink wrap. Lots of good options out there.

Thats disappointing, I bought one recently because of the warranty. You have proof of purchase still? Where did you buy it?

I bought it from wholesale and yes i had everything even Sent pics of the target fillings coming out with my arrows. No help or warranty!! The lifetime warranty i think is a kit they send you to repair it. So they fillings get replaced and a new shell gets installed. But with there new plus serious i dont think the fillings are working out so maybe they are avoiding the issue where they can ?? i dunno but for 100 plus dollar target you should get more then approx 200 shots

Coffee bean bags and lumber wrap. Free and I have never had a pass through. Find a local company that brews coffee and they give the bags away. Super easy to make and the never soak up the rain.
