Big Shot Targets

The Humble Beginnings:

The BIGshot story begins: In 2003 I had some problems with mechanical broadheads opening and getting pass throughs, so I decided at that time to move to fixed broadheads. I started to test various brands and quickly shot up my layered target in a matter of weeks. Having two young boys at the time, I wanted something larger to act as a backstop so we weren’t chasing arrows all day. The problem was that a large format layered target was about $ 400.00 which was not in my budget.

Necessity is the mother of invention:

After weeks of trial and error, I eventually came across a material and design that worked well. At my next 3D shoot, I told a couple of friends what I had built and they asked if I would make one for them. I delivered them at our next 3D shoot. When they guys at the club saw it, I received 7 more orders…..you can see where this is going.

Time to come up with a name:

Since we seemed to have a product people wanted, we needed to have a name. I sat down with my sons and we started thinking about what to call the targets. The targets were BIG and they took lots of SHOTS, so being creative types, we came up with the name BIGshot Targets.
