Wow, now that's what I call a backyard!! Awesome.

Is there some sort of backstop in there? It looks like the bushes leave you unsighted for anything behind the target area.

EverHopeful. No nothing, not yet anyway. After the bushes is just marsh land so I wouldn't have to worry about a person wandering through.

After thinking about it I was like a multi level back stop would be a great idea so with some scrap wood I had in the back yard I put this together. Its still not pretty but whatever. Reduce, reuse, recycle lol.

I hear you about the "recycle" part
When we go shopping now I always think to myself.....that's going to make a GREAT target when its empty :) :) :)
Hitting tins cans dangling from steel wire at a distance makes a cool sound!!
