Repairing a Broadhead Target
I have been using a Morrell Yellow Jacket broadhead target for a couple of years now and have 2 holes that are just about shot through...
While at Lowes Hardware yesterday, I picked up a can of foam insulation...I went home and filled these holes with the insulation...
After work today, I cut off the excess foam and shot 6 arrows through the repaired area...The foam stopped the arrows and were pretty easy to remove...I think I can make it through the season with this target...

I wrap my target in plastic wrap and tape and then use the foam. (poke a couple small holes in the tape) The plastic/tape compresses the foam a bit so it lasts longer.(it doesn't last for a whole season tho')
I just re-did my hog target and where ever the expanding foam came out of the plastic wrap there are blobs.... it looks like my hog has tumors.

I think you will find out that the type of foam you are mentioning for a patch will cut out fairly fast. It has very little self healing properties at all.
Another Great choice in Broadhead targets are the ones made by American Whitetail.
