Description
Anyone who has fought with a jammed staple gun or watched a target sag off the backer mid-session will appreciate what these do. The 3-inch TargetTacks are molded from a UV-stabilized medical grade polycarbonate and finished in bright orange so they are easy to spot on the backstop and just as easy to find when it is time to pull them. This is the loose bulk 100-pack, packed in a resealable pouch rather than retail blister packaging, which makes it the grab-and-go option for people who go through a lot of targets.
What the 3-Inch TargetTacks Are Built For
The longer 3-inch serrated shaft is the one you want for softer, deeper backers. It bites firmly into layered foam archery targets, foam blocks like TuffBlock and Delta McKenzie style backers, straw butts, and hay bale backers. It also handles paper and vinyl targets on common range setups. A good rule of thumb from the maker is four tacks per standard target, and larger targets over about 16 inches or windy days may call for a few more to keep everything flat and steady.
Why Orange TargetTacks Beat Staples and Tape
The serrated shaft is the star here. It grabs and holds without chewing up your target material, and the ergonomic head gives you something to grip with gloves on, which speeds up target changeovers between strings. Each tack is reusable and made to run again and again until it is visibly worn or damaged, so a 100-pack goes a long way and cuts down on the consumables piling up in your range bag. The heads also include an eyelet, so you can run string or cord through them to hang a backer if you need to.
Made in the USA and rust-free by design, they hold up in heat, cold, dust, and humidity. One storage note worth passing along: keep them sealed and out of direct sunlight when not in use, since long-term UV exposure can eventually break down polycarbonate. Toss the pouch in your bag and you are set for a long stretch of range days.

Frequently Asked Questions
What backers do the 3-inch TargetTacks work best with?
The 3-inch length is made for softer, deeper materials like layered foam archery targets, foam blocks, straw butts, and hay bale backers. The serrated shaft bites in and holds without tearing up your target. If you are mostly shooting on dense cardboard or thin backers, the shorter 1-inch version is the better fit, but for foam and hay-style setups these are the ones you want.
How many tacks do I need to hang one target?
Plan on about four tacks per standard target to keep it flat and secure. Targets larger than roughly 16 inches, or windy outdoor days, may call for a few extra to stop the paper from flapping around. With 100 in the pouch you have plenty of headroom for a full day and then some.
Are these TargetTacks actually reusable?
Yes. Each one is built to be used over and over until it is visibly worn or damaged, which is a big part of the appeal over one-and-done staples. That reusability is why a 100-pack tends to last a long time for most people.
Do I need to worry about how I store them?
Keep them in the resealable pouch and out of direct sunlight when they are not in use. Polycarbonate can break down over the long haul with heavy UV exposure, so a sealed bag in your range bag or toolbox is ideal. Stored that way they hold up fine through heat, cold, dust, and humidity.
