I'm not sure this qualifies as a home ownership question but I know there are a lot of smart handy dudes ITT so here goes:
I am planning on making a 4 foot by 4 foot dart board and putting it in my garage. I am currently between 7 layer 3/4 inch thick plywood and 3/4 inch thick homasoat board, but am looking for advice ITT as to which or maybe even a recommendation for some other board I haven't thought about yet. Keep in mind this board is going to get hit with a bunch of darts and I want it to hold up for years to come and I also bought really thin metal wiring that I plan to staple to it. I also have 1/4" thick cork board that is 4ftx8ft but I don't think it is tight enough cork to hold up to the beating the darts will deliver.
I also need 2 other boards that are 8+ feet long that can cover 2 windows in my garage and that will preferably hold a dart that misses the board (as opposed to stopping a dart and letting it fall to a harder floor).
random YouTube I watched 15 seconds of but will give you an idea about the darts and the board:

CLIFFS:
1. what type of board should i use for a 4x4 dart board I am building?
2. what type of 8+' board should i use to hang over my windows to protect them and the darts from each other?
