Title: Broadhead Group @ 20 yards
Post by: MJB on September 04, 2008, 02:29:00 PM
Mounted some Magnus 135 flying hatchets this morning. Here are my results at 20 yards. After examining the arrow to the far left. I noticed that one feather was slightly fletched farther than the other two. I'll have to change that :^)

Dave,
It's all because people of your caliber and others who have answered my questions. No matter how dumb I thought they were , you always answered and pointed me in the right direction.

The caliber of the people on here willing to help is OUTSTANDING. My hat is off to you and the moderators and all the members of this forum.

THANKS BRO

Nice shooting.  I don't know what would happen if I tried that, but I'm scared to shoot more than 1 broadhead at a target.  I might get lucky and get 2 shots close and accidentally kill an arrow.

Looks like the middle arrow needs to be refletched to Mike.

Good lesson to also shoot at different marks on the broadhead target! I learned the hard way too.

Mjb, Dont worry my friend, with a little practice you can get tight groups too   :D    ;)

Drew,
The grinner I picked up at Denton Hill this year. I use it when trying to really concentrate (field tips). Hard to get out though. Behind the block target is a whistle pig hole active :^)

Did that once forgetting they were broadheads-what a way to ruin heads and cut arrows-won't do that again.

shooting groups with broadheads!  you're a brave man.  I shoot one at a time because I don't like to bust them up.   But nice shooting!

Mike,
You know that every time I see that bow, I reconsider changing my order to a one piece.  Love the riser wood.  I do believe it was the smoothest bow at Denton Hill!

I couldn't agree more.  I have been visiting here since 2006 but I am not much of a poster.  Most of the things I wanted to ask have been asked already and answered so completely that the need to ask again just vanishes.

I visit a lot of forums, many hunting, and this is the place I prefer to spend my time.

I think it's the trad spirit in everyone here.  They (we) have something other's don't seem to.  A soul?  A sense of wonder?  Something else spiritual?  Whatever it is, it's something I can't define, but it's something I cherish.

Oh... nice group.  Deadly at 20.  Who needs more?

Hi Doug,
Thanks I have another one piece on order. Almost ordered a take down. But going to stick with the one piece's. Pleasure spending time with you at Denton Hill. Maybe we can hook up and you can ride up with me next year.

Mitch,
I know exactly what you mean. Tis a SPECIAL PLACE INDEED   :campfire:      :coffee:

Yowza!  You are as brave as you are a good shot.  Nice job.  Those arrows are really pretty but they need something... What could it be?  Some deer blood stain would go really well.

Hehe - there ya go.  I'd say 'good luck' but with shooting like that, you seem not to need too much of it.
