Hi
Here's the problem-
How long ought a straw target boss to last? I've got through two in just a few months - the last only lasted a few weeks before the straw was belling out at the back and it's pretty much worn out in the middlle (!) I shoot maybe 500 arrows a week in practice, so is this kind of wear to be expected?
Is it just a pretty rubbishy boss? It's from Decathlon (yes, I know they have a poor reputation for a lot of things - but a target boss???) Trouble is, I don't have a lot of choice here in my neck of the woods, and even if I could get something sent from England to France, the postage would be prohibitive.
I'm coming back to England for a flying visit in early June, so could anyone suggest a source for a good target boss that I could pick up then? I could get something posted to a UK address beforehand, perhaps. I really need something that might last a while!
Thanks
Graham
