What are these targets best used for?

Zombie Industries prides itself on offering the most versatile tactical targets available today. We have sold 1000s of targets to a wide variety of clients and customers including Military and Law Enforcement as well as private shooting enthusiasts. Our three-dimensional targets are perfect for practicing on the range and group outings that need a rugged life-like target, and nothing’s better for helping Zombie Hunters prepare for the Zombie Apocalypse.

For even more fun, you can use several Zombie Targets to create your own Zombie Apocalypse Shooting Course. Whether you use a single Target or a whole army of Zombies, Zombie Industries’ 3D targets can be used for any legal shooting activity.

How do I stake and shoot the target?

Use common sense and EXTREME CAUTION when shooting any weapon at your Zombie Target!

Carefully remove dormant Zombie and included wooden stake to prepare Zombie for staking.

Turn Zombie upside down, then carefully cut an “X” in the center bottom, positioned closer to the front of the belly than the back.

Turn your Zombie upright, hold firmly and then place the stake point in line with the X on the bottom and push down at least 4 inches to keep the stake solidly in position. 


NOTE: At this point, Zombie may be awakening from dormancy. Be careful as the stake mounting process angers the Zombie!

Carefully remove stake from Zombie and flip it over.

POUND the pointed end of stake into the ground or a sand bucket using a hammer or rubber mallet (you can hit the Angry Zombie too but be careful!)

Mount Zombie on top of the flat end of the stake.

Only push down on Zombie's shoulders, not the Zombie's head (this will help you to avoid getting bitten).

Once Zombie is successfully mounted and secured, immediately begin pummeling the infuriated Zombie with any and all weapons and calibers available. This tough son-of-a-gun can withstand upwards of 1000 rounds of any caliber, so let ‘em have it!

REMEMBER… The only way to kill a Zombie is by destroying it and beheading it.

How do I get the best results with my Zombie Target?

Zombie Industries offers two distinct kinds of Zombie Targets: Bleeder Targets and Reactive Targets. For Bleeder Zombie Targets, concentrate shots in the head and center mass areas for optimum bleeding effect. Since the Reactive Zombies mark orange rather than bleed, you can shoot them anywhere (even the Zombie hair!)

Remember, unloading a magazine or two into the Zombie isn’t going to do much. It’ll take more than 10 or 20 rounds to hurt these Zombies, so give ‘em all you’ve got. Unload 100s of rounds to get the fun started and when you’re almost done, finish the Zombie off by decapitating it with a few well-placed shots to the neck area. Remember, a Zombie isn’t finished until it’s been decapitated. 

What is the oozing blood?

Our patented Bleeding Zombie Tactical Targets uses 100's of specialty paint packet that ooze out when shot. This allows you to shoot the target many different times in many different areas to get the oozing 'blood'. 

However, make sure you don’t touch the ‘blood’ or you might get infected!

Do I need to worry about it ‘drying out’ from the existing holes?

Our patented “Zombie Blood” can be safely stored so you can use your Zombie again and again.

How would you recommend storing it after use for future use?

For best results, we recommend storing your Zombie in its original box.
