For anybody curious about the new Predator 36, here’s some pictures of the cube itself and some other reference photos
If you have a local dealer, you can call them and have them place an order. I was going to buy from my local shop but their shipping was a month out because the targets are backordered. A lot of smaller shops won't carry them because they're not used to people actually wanting a $340 targetI prefer the color over the 365. Green pin doesn’t get lost in orange and black. Wonder when and where they will sell in brick and mortar stores.
No dealers anywhere near me. Scheels, 1.5 hours away. But they carry 365. Cabelas maybe. Also 1.5 hours away. lolIf you have a local dealer, you can call them and have them place an order.

Not seeing them on the websiteI ordered mine from Podium Archer for $360 (before tax) shipped to my door in a few days.
They're currently out of stock so that may be why.Not seeing them on the website
The core stays in super solid, you have to grab the whole frame and push it out with your foot. As for ease, they slide out without an issue. Easier than a 3d, a little harder than a layered foam target but not much.How do the arrows pull? Does it try to slide out the core?
May I ask how I looked into it and the target is is $359 and is $70 freight charge. Lancaster wants even more to ship it. I ended up going with the 24”.I ordered mine from Podium Archer for $360 (before tax) shipped to my door in a few days.
It’s $300 if you do in store pickup. I’m assuming they added the shipping cost to the total cost because I got “free shipping” when I purchased it.May I ask how I looked into it and the target is is $359 and is $70 freight charge.

Interesting, I'm shooting 70# 26.5"out of a Lift with 430gr arrows (carbon) and my arrows pull from the backstop super easily. Could just be down to something like it being hot outside here and the foam might be a little looserJust received a Predator 24 and so far, I'm pretty happy with it. Shooting X7 aluminums at 10ft from a 44# bow, the arrows pull from the core easily, but when I put 5 shots into the black surround to see how it behaved, I had a fight on my hands to get them out. Granted, I'm 72 with a scrawny upper body, so YMMV, but it could be a consideration if you're shooting carbon arrows from a 75# bow, but only if you're planning to put them in the surround.
The size of the 24 is perfect for my use as a garage target, sitting on a bench for training and test shots, but it will get used outdoors a lot too.
I hope you're right, though I'm in Michigan too, so I don't know if it's a temperature issue. In any case, it's just different than I expected, not better or worse. I'm sure we'll come to terms.Interesting, I'm shooting 70# 26.5"out of a Lift with 430gr arrows (carbon) and my arrows pull from the backstop super easily.
