2D Hare Target Eleven for 3D and Field Archery
The 2D Hare Target – Eleven is a compact, lightweight polyfoam animal target designed for intensive 3D and field archery training.
Main specifications:
- 46 × 32 × 17 cm
- approx. 1 kg
- tough polyfoam
- recommended for recurve bows up to 30 lb
- not suitable for crossbows
Training with a Small Animal Silhouette
The Hare provides a smaller animal-shaped target than many large field targets.
This allows the archer to vary training difficulty through:
- shooting distance,
- target placement,
- shooting angle,
- different stations.
Distance Estimation
Animal-shaped targets can be useful when practising distance estimation.
Placing similar targets at different distances helps the archer become accustomed to changes in apparent target size.
Accuracy Training
The smaller silhouette can encourage more careful aiming.
Actual accuracy still depends on consistent shooting technique and regular practice.
3D-Style Training
Although it is not a full 3D target, the Hare can be used as part of 3D-style preparation.
It allows practice with:
- animal silhouettes,
- non-circular targets,
- varying target sizes,
- changing distances.
2D Construction
This product is a:
2D animal target
It does not reproduce the complete three-dimensional body of a full 3D target.
Advantages include:
- low weight,
- easy transport,
- compact storage,
- quick course setup.
Tough Polyfoam
The target is manufactured from tough polyfoam designed for repeated arrow impacts during normal archery practice.
Dimensions
Overall dimensions:
46 × 32 × 17 cm
Thickness:
17 cm
Approximate Weight
The target weighs approximately:
1 kg
Its low weight makes it particularly practical for mobile field courses.
Recurve Bows up to 30 lb
The target is recommended for:
recurve bows up to 30 lb
If a bow is rated at:
30 lb @ 28″
drawing farther than 28 inches may increase actual draw weight.
Arrow Diameter
Different shaft diameters can penetrate foam differently.
Stopping performance therefore depends partly on the arrow itself.
Arrow Point Type
Point geometry also affects penetration.
The complete shooting setup should therefore be considered rather than bow draw weight alone.
Target Life
There is no fixed number of shots that defines target lifespan.
Wear depends on:
- bow strength,
- number of impacts,
- hit concentration,
- arrow diameter,
- point type,
- shooting distance.
Club Training
The compact size and low weight make the Hare useful for:
- archery clubs,
- archery schools,
- youth groups,
- coaches,
- mobile courses.
Beginners
Beginners should start at a distance where they can reliably hit the complete target.
Experienced Archers
Experienced shooters can increase difficulty through:
- longer distances,
- changing shooting stations,
- different angles,
- combinations with larger animal targets.
Not Suitable for Crossbows
The target is not designed for crossbow use.
Safe Shooting
Always maintain a safe shooting area or suitable backstop behind the target.
