The projectile-catching brake employs at least one resilient brake shoe which is made of metal for use with plastic projectiles. Where used with steel projectiles, the brake shoe may be provided with an insert of plastic material which can be replaced from time-to-time. In some embodiments, the resilient brake shoe is formed of a hollow section member to define a cavity through which air or other coolant may flow. In still other embodiments, bent stampings are used to form the brake shoes. A brake shoe body of metal may also be mounted by spaced apart resilient plastic strips.
