GlenDel has graced us with a new 3-D Archery target for 2011.  The GlenDel Buck offers archers a shooting experience that toes the line of realistic encounters.  A GlenDel Buck stands 34 inches high at the shoulders, mimicking a 200 pound  buck with 150 inch antlers.  The head on a GlenDel Buck swivels so you can face it in any direction.

“If you are going to hunt big bucks, practice on a big buck. The GlenDel Buck is one big 3-D target. It will prepare you for a shot at a trophy buck.”  - http://glendel.com/Products/Glendel-Buck.php

What makes this target special, however, is the core insert.  The GlenDel Buck features a super-sized, four sided insert that is much bigger than the inserts in other 3-D targets. The GlenDel Buck insert features PolyFusion Technology, the same revolutionary technology found in the BLOCK Fusion. PolyFusion is a process whereby two materials, polyurethane and polyethylene, are fused together to enhance insert performance. The GlenDel insert with PolyFusion lasts twice as long as previous inserts and offers easy arrow removal. In fact, arrow removal from a GlenDel insert is considerably easier than from other 3-D targets.

The GlenDel insert also offers four-sided shooting. By rotating the insert within the body of the target, you essentially get four inserts in one. Each side featuresa different vitals' facing and the vital areas are offset or staggered so you are shooting into different areas of foam. This assures long lasting durability.  Each side also offers a different shooting perspective; quartering away or tree stand, also horizontal and vertical layers for your different types of broadheads.

The GlenDel Buck is designed to take field tips, broadheads or expandables. This allows you to practice all year long on your GlenDel target.

If you want a 3-D target that looks like a trophy buck, this is the one for you.

TalkHunting Pro Staffer, Brent "Cobrican" Sawyer, was born into a sporting family.  His first couple years of life were spent on the banks of Lake Arthur and around his grandfather's farm in Jennings, La.  Even when his family moved to the city, they visited the farm often.  Brent's parents and Pawpaw spent as many hours as they could find taking him outside to learn how to care for and survive on the land around him.  They camped and hiked.  They gardened.  Brent joined the Boy Scouts as a Bobcat and continued to be involved through his High School days.  There, he learned many new skills to help him belong out of doors.  Brent and his cousins would often sleep out under the stars with only a blanket.  

At the age of 8 he was given his first BB gun.  At 10 he was allowed to hunt with a shotgun.  The family had a lease where they hunted, predominantly, Speckle-belly geese with the occasional snow or duck.  They also hunted doves and rabbits.  Brent learned how to call specks well enough to hunt on his own in only a short time.  About the time Brent went to college, his grandfather dropped the hunting lease.  Fortunately, North Louisiana offers some great opportunities for hunting on public lands.  He spent many hours duck hunting as well as hunting small game.  In 2000 Brent was invited to his first deer hunt.  Since then he has been fully involved in the deer hunting experience.  He also loves to fish.  Lately he has made more opportunities to fish salt water than freshwater but he enjoys both.

Brent Graduated with a degree in Forest Technology and has used his degree as a basis for hunting and recreation properties management.  He joined Talkhunting.com in 2008 and has attended gatherings in Louisiana and Alabama.  He also works for Breathe Safe Environmental Services as a third party monitor for lead and asbestos abatement.  He loves his job but hopes to be able to one day move exclusively to property management and consulting.
