BOA Compression Archery Targets Handle High-Speed Crossbows
BOA Compression archery targets are built around a high-density, compression-packed design intended for field-point shooting with modern bows and high-speed crossbows. The two-sided targets use Gridlock Nylon Facing™ and a wood frame designed to contain the heavy compression required by the internal stuffing material.
Rated for arrow speeds from 465 to 500 feet per second (fps), the targets are crossbow approved while emphasizing easy arrow removal. The shooting faces also provide multiple aiming and setup references, including traditional bullseyes, a tuning cross, a 16-inch measuring grid, and assorted shapes intended to give shooters varied aiming points.

High-speed crossbows place considerable demands on bag-style and compression archery targets, particularly when balancing stopping capability with manageable arrow removal. BOA’s approach combines a heavily compressed fill system with a reinforced facing, while the three available sizes give shooters options for backyard practice, bow tuning, and general field-point shooting.
The woven polypropylene handle is also a practical departure from the metal handles often found on heavy targets. It provides a softer contact point when moving the target between shooting positions or carrying it into storage.
The BOA Compression archery targets add another high-speed option for shooters who need a field-point target capable of handling contemporary crossbow velocities while retaining multiple aiming and tuning references.
