Shooting at 3D animals offers an exciting alternative to traditional archery with simple target faces. These 3D targets, modeled after realistic animal figures, provide a more intense and varied shooting experience. They are equipped with so-called kill zones, which are divided into different sizes. These zones allow for precise scoring and point allocation: the closer the arrow lands to the center of the kill zone, the more points are awarded. Various manufacturers of 3D animals, available through Bearpaw Products, strive to make their targets as lifelike as possible, enhancing the thrill of archery.

3D Targets from Longlife
Our Longlife 3D targets are made from a high-quality and durable special foam "Made in Germany," which has several outstanding properties. This foam reliably stops every arrow while still allowing for easy arrow removal. Additionally, the material is UV-resistant and weatherproof, ensuring it remains durable even under intense sunlight and adverse weather conditions. The foam has a self-healing effect, which we call the "Longlife 3D Targets Self Healing Effect." The realistic appearance of our targets complements the quality of this special foam, known for its exceptional durability and high value.

3D Targets from Leitold
Each 3D target from IBB is modeled and produced at the facility in Moosdorf. An in-house expert, a master in preparation, ensures that the 3D animals are designed to be particularly realistic. A large portion of the range is made in one piece, which makes the targets extremely robust and easy to set up on the course. Integrated iron rods ensure a secure stand, while careful material coordination ensures that arrows are reliably stopped and can be easily removed. Interested parties can choose from the largest selection on the European market and experience the quality for themselves.

3D Targets from IBB
The 3D targets from IBB are distinguished by their special authenticity in visual design. At typical shooting distances for 3D hunting archery, the IBB 3D animals are almost indistinguishable from the living model. Additionally, these targets use a specially developed foam that ensures extremely long durability. Due to the in-house production of the 3D animals, IBB is extremely flexible and can quickly respond to individual requirements and orders. The polyurethane foam used is designed so that bullet holes close quickly after the arrows are pulled out, depending on the temperature. While this closing occurs quickly in warmer seasons, it may take a bit longer in colder months. Compared to 3D targets from other manufacturers, IBB 3D animals are often more cost-effective, making them a budget-friendly choice for clubs.

3D Targets from Franzbogen
Franzbogen 3D animals are made from an innovative, highly elastic foam blend. This foam blend features a higher mass, giving the 3D targets excellent stability. Thanks to this stable base, the targets remain firmly in place even with intensive use, without slipping. Additionally, the special elasticity of the material ensures that arrows are gently stopped, significantly extending their lifespan. Thus, Franzbogen 3D animals combine exceptional stability with an arrow-friendly effect, designed for long-term use.

What Makes Shooting 3D Animals Special?
Shooting at 3D targets adds a special appeal to archery. Unlike conventional target faces, the silhouette of an animal model provides a realistic challenge that makes training more varied and immerses shooters in an exciting hunting scenario. This variety is particularly helpful for overcoming periods of lower motivation and making training exciting again.

3D Targets on Archery Courses
Shooting on 3D courses is growing in popularity and offers both experienced archers and recreational shooters an exciting experience. The variety of 3D targets is impressive, ranging from majestic deer and powerful grizzly bears to snakes and exotic animal species – the selection is vast. Like conventional target faces, 3D animals also include kill zones that allow for precise point allocation. These zones not only offer the opportunity to increase the difficulty with varying distances, uphill or downhill shots, but also make training particularly challenging and varied.

The foams used for the 3D animals are specially designed to preserve arrows by self-healing after being hit. Additionally, most models are UV-resistant and weatherproof, ensuring their longevity outdoors – whether under bright sunshine or rain. When setting up 3D targets, imagination is almost limitless, but safety should always be the priority. Targets should never be placed directly in line with other shooting ranges or areas where people might gather. Particularly appealing are challenges where targets are hidden behind natural obstacles such as trees or bushes or need to be hit across a valley. Shots on targets on a slope also challenge even experienced shooters and provide exciting variety. To avoid arrow loss and damage, it is advisable to install additional netting for challenging shots.

3D Targets at Home
If you want to set up 3D animals in your backyard, special attention should be paid to safety. It is important that arrows do not leave the property or endanger neighbors in the event of a missed shot. The size of the target should also be adapted to the space available in the garden. A large target on a small property may offer little challenge and limit training variety. Therefore, it is advisable to choose a target that fits the space and provides the desired level of difficulty.
