Non-lethal arrow entertainment system and kit
A non-lethal arrow that includes a shaft having a non-lethal arrow assembly on a respective end of the shaft. A nock is connected to an opposite end of the shaft. A plurality of vanes is connected to the shaft near the nock. A marker can be attached to an end of the non-lethal arrow assembly that is configured to stick to a target upon impact with the target. The marker is further configured such that the non-lethal arrow disengages from the marker, and falls away from the target upon impact with the target leaving only the marker left on the target.
Luminescent archery target
A luminescent archery target enabling target shooting in low light conditions. At least a portion of the target is formed from a material that glows in the dark for long durations, such as a strontium-based luminescent composition. Example target configurations include a non-luminescent core and an outer layer applied over at least a portion of the core, wherein the outer layer includes the luminescent material. The target can be configured as a three-dimensional block, as a model of a game animal, or in other shapes and sizes.
Targets and target stands
A target may allow target practice and/or simulate the shape of one or more animals. In various implementations, a target may include a target body and/or stand. The target body may be capable of receiving shots from arrows and/or ammunition. A target body may include a first aiming zone and a second aiming zone on an opposing surface. In some implementations, the first aiming zone and/or the second aiming zone may be off center. The orientation of the target body may be altered to select an aiming zone of the target body based upon user preference, in some implementations. The overlay may have shape similar to a predetermined animal. The overlay may be replaceable. The stand may support the target body. In various implementations, an overlay may be coupled to the target body and/or stand.
Stackable archery target having multiple replaceable cube cores
The Stackable Archery Target Having Replaceable Cube Cores includes a plurality of replaceable cube cores, one or more core receivers. and a base. The base is formed with one or more core receivers, which receive one of more replaceable cube core. The replaceable cube core provides a visual target display for archers to aim and shoot The base ensures that the cube cores are firmly held within the confines of the core receiver to prevent the replaceable cube core from shifting or moving under impact from the arrows. The replaceable cube core is formed as a cube having three (3) useable target surfaces. Each target surface provides a consistent penetration depth on each surface for predictable results, regardless of the face that is used for the target surface. When one face has been sufficiently used, the user rotates the cube to show a fresh target display.
PORTABLE BREAKAWAY BOLT SAVING BOLT STOP
A portable flexible collapsible non-penetrable breakaway blunt bolt stop target in combination with a quick release fastener is provided. The target is provided along with a quick release fastener that can be attached to a stand and when impacted by a bolt shot from a crossbow the target is released from the stand and falls to the ground along with the bolt thus preventing damage to the bolt and to the crossbow. The target is foldable and capable of being rolled up to be carried in a pocked or easily carried on or stored in a crossbow.
Deer Decoy Assembly
A deer decoy assembly includes a decoy that is selectively positioned in a hunting area. The decoy is structured to resemble a deer to attract deer. A pair of antlers is provided and each of the antlers is removably coupled to the head on the decoy. In this way the decoy is structured to selectively resemble a buck and a doe. A tail is removably coupled to the rump and the tail is comprised of a fluid absorbent material. The tail selectively absorbs a liquid scent to emit the scent for attracting the deer. A call unit is coupled to the decoy and the call unit selectively emits an audible sound to attract the deer to the decoy. A remote unit is in wireless electrical communication with the call unit to selectively actuate the call unit.
Non-Lethal Arrow Entertainment System and Kit
A non-lethal arrow that includes a shaft having a non-lethal arrow assembly on a respective end of the shaft. A nock is connected to an opposite end of the shaft. A plurality of vanes is connected to the shaft near the nock. A marker can be attached to an end of the non-lethal arrow assembly that is configured to stick to a target upon impact with the target. The marker is further configured such that the non-lethal arrow disengages from the marker, and falls away from the target upon impact with the target leaving only the marker left on the target.
Lens and method for enhanced visual targeting of a sports archery target
A lens for eyewear, the lens having a transmittance in a spectral range at least between 400 and 780 nm. The spectral range includes a first and a second color range which are different from each other. The first and second color ranges are each at least 50 nm broad. A first medium transmittance in the first range is higher than a second medium transmittance in the second range. A medium transmittance in the spectral range is above 35%. A maximum transmittance value in the spectral range is above 70%. The second medium transmittance is below 20%. A maximum value of transmittance within the second range is below 30%. The first medium transmittance is at least 15% higher than the second medium transmittance. Further, a method for providing a lens for eyewear for sports archery is provided. In particular, this may enhance visually targeting a sports archery target.
Target assembly with interchangeable target bodies
A collapsible target is disclosed. The target comprises a frame that is collapsible from an open, unfolded configuration, to a closed, folded configuration. A fabric housing is mounted on the frame using a series of capped connectors and grommets. The housing comprises a plurality of panels joined together to from an inner compartment. The front panel of the compartment is formed with a window. A target assembly comprising a self-resetting spinner and a base is mounted in the compartment behind the window. The spinner may be mounted on an illuminated axle. The base is dimensioned for alternately holding a breakable clay target. The target is highly portable and easy to setup and take down. The target may be conveniently stored in a bag when not in use.
Collapsible Target Bag
A bag target and a method of manufacturing the bag target configured to substantively decrease in size for storage, shipment and/or display. The bag target is further configured to absorb and dissipate essentially all of the kinetic energy of a high energy projectile such as an arrow or a crossbow bolt.
