Faces

In 1975 Saunders introduced the first mass produced nylon reinforced target face.  We called the faces Toughenized since the nylon thread substrate held it together when other faces would have literally been shot to pieces.

Interesting, yes but that is not the first Toughenized face. Years before this, Phyllis Saunders hand laminated cheese cloth skirting behind the center of our faces. Those who shot these faces have long past away but even what some might call “crude improvements” were a small but important part of the early and rich history of modern archery.
