JVD Green Archery Backstop Net – Standard / Extra Strong

JVD

The JVD Green Archery Backstop Net is a professional secondary arrow-catching system designed for installation behind the main archery target butt.

It helps catch or significantly slow arrows that miss the target, miss the target butt or occasionally pass through a heavily worn section of the primary backstop.

Standard and Extra Strong

Standard – approx. 300 g/m²

Designed primarily for lighter archery setups.

Extra Strong – approx. 500 g/m²

A denser and more robust version providing a greater safety margin.

Natural Green Colour

The green finish blends naturally into vegetation and woodland environments, making it especially suitable for outdoor ranges and forest-style 3D courses.

Loose Hanging Installation

The net should be hung loosely rather than stretched tight.

The material needs freedom to move backwards and deform on impact, helping absorb part of the arrow's energy.

Mounting Eyelets and Steel Cable

The supplied configuration includes mounting holes or eyelets and a steel suspension cable.

Available Extra Strong Sizes

3 × 2.7 m Extra Strong

4 × 2.7 m Extra Strong

5 × 2.7 m Extra Strong

10 × 2.7 m Extra Strong

Available Standard Sizes

3 × 3 m Standard

4 × 3 m Standard

5 × 3 m Standard

Important Safety Principle

The net is not a target butt.

Correct range layout follows this principle:

archer → target → target butt → backstop net → safe area

People and valuable objects must not be placed behind the net as if it were an absolute protective barrier.

JVD Green Archery Backstop Net for Outdoor and Club Ranges

The JVD Green Archery Backstop Net provides an additional arrow-catching layer behind the main target butt.

Its green colour makes it particularly suitable for forest ranges and natural outdoor shooting areas.

Standard – Approx. 300 g/m²

The green Standard version has an approximate surface weight of 300 g/m² and is primarily intended for lighter archery setups.

Extra Strong – Approx. 500 g/m²

The green Extra Strong version has an approximate surface weight of 500 g/m².

Its denser construction provides a higher safety margin than the Standard version.

Green Extra Strong vs White Extra Strong

Green Extra Strong is approximately 500 g/m², compared with approximately 450 g/m² for White Extra Strong.

This comparison relates to surface weight and must not be interpreted as a directly proportional increase in stopping performance.

No Universal Poundage Limit

Backstop performance depends on much more than bow draw weight.

Important factors include actual bow performance, draw length, arrow speed, arrow mass, shaft diameter, point geometry, shooting distance, impact angle, net installation and net condition.

Loose Hanging Is Essential

The net needs freedom to move when struck.

It should not be stretched tight like a rigid wall.

Wide 10 m Version

The 10 × 2.7 m Extra Strong version provides very wide coverage and can be useful behind several adjacent targets or a wider club shooting line.

Approximate Lane Coverage

3 m – approximately 1 lane

4 m – approximately 1–2 lanes

5 m – approximately 2–3 lanes

10 m – approximately 3–4 lanes

These figures are organisational estimates rather than fixed safety standards.

Indoor and Outdoor Use

The net can be used on indoor and outdoor archery ranges.

Outdoor supporting structures must account for wind loading, particularly with wider nets.

Mounting Between Trees or Posts

Suitable fixed points may be used when the installation is secure and properly designed.

The steel cable does not itself replace a suitable supporting structure.

Inspection

Before shooting, inspect the full net surface, mounting eyelets, cable, attachment points, cuts, tears and damaged sections.

Broadheads

Broadhead compatibility is not confirmed.

Cutting blades can damage or sever net fibres and should not be used without explicit manufacturer approval.

Compound Bows

Compatibility cannot be determined from draw weight alone.

Fast, narrow carbon arrows can create demanding conditions for textile backstop systems.

Crossbows

General crossbow compatibility is not confirmed.

The net should therefore not be advertised as universally suitable for crossbows without specific manufacturer confirmation.
