It finally happened, the kids fell through the old tramp.
Got them a new one for Christmas, but thought of a good use for the old frame.
It has now been transformed into a moveable target frame for their new compounds that they also got for Christmas (did a lot better than their old man)

All I did was use the existing legs, put them on each side of the frame base, then used the leg stays and a couple of 1/4" x 4" bolts, with the heads cut off, to hold the target butts.
Then I made a sleeve from shadecloth, sewn on each side with fishing line, to slip over the frame.
It stops their 30# compounds no worries and as a bonus will stop my 40# Recurve at 15 meters as well.
