<font size="2">Treated myself to one of these the other day so I could carry on changing nappies and shooting?at home! Main reason for buying it was to build up my endurance so I wouldn't be shooting from a long distance - you'll probably guess what happened </font></p>
<font size="2">Set it up in front of the garage door (balanced against the door on a recycle box) and just to be sure placed a 2" thick plank of wood behind the boss, retired to a safe distance (some 10') and continued, quite literally, to nail the boss to the garage door and splinter the 2" thick plank in the process. I also managed to splinter 3 of my carbons (luckily they were an old cheap set) and I still can't get the points out of the door!</font></p>
<font size="2">I've remedied this by building a target stand and hanging a thick rubber welcome mat behind the boss to absorb the force of the arrows and it seems to be doing the job </font></p>
<font size="2">So, quick word of warning, don't buy one of these cheap bosses if you're shooting at home over a short distance!</font></p>
<font size="2">And yes, I do realise that this probably qualifies me for a Fonz award but I won't tell Gold Flinger if you don't </font></p>
