Anybody here know if anyone makes lifesize paper hog targets and where they can be purchased?

I've been looking for some myself. The closest I've found so far are the Delta black bear archery targets. Not quite hog, but the closest in size & profile I've found so far. If you can figure out how to enlarge these, let me know. I'll buy some

There seem to be life-sized targets for every species of game other than wild hogs. What's wrong with people? Don't they know that hog hunting is more fun than many other types of hunting?? Obviously not!! Big Grin

My kids and I had to make our own:



The owner of our local range here in Bakersfield is going to use them to make steel targets.

I've mounted the cardboard variants to landscaping stakes which I then drive into the ground. We've had a lot of fun with them.

Good luck . . .

Between 8 and 10 USD for papper version, if you want plastic they are about 50 USD,

The plastic versions will stand on there own, papper needs a backboard of some kind preferable a thin fiber board or cardboard.

I only practice on animal targets all season, I belive that makes me a better shot,

Ok I´ll admitt I do shot some targets from the bench for tuning loads but not a lot.

O would you like me to order some for you?

The paper versions ship in a card board tube.

Best regards Chris

Awesome targets guys! I am going to attempt to trace a similar pig to Teat hounds and weld some metal pigs together for some target range targets for this years deer lease.
