Well it has finally happened. While I have removed fletching and dented shafts before I never managed to get a true Robin Hood, and this under less than ideal conditions.
It has been so hot and humid, or raining, here in southern Indiana I haven't been able to shoot in almost a week. I got bored with the movie I was watching so a bit before midnight tonight, don't have to go to work in the AM :cool: , I set up a couple of electric lights, an electric fan and shot a few arrows.
I was shooting a 15 yards, a bit closer than my normal range, and drenched in sweat and during my last round this happened.

Darn, just bought those shafts a Cloverdale a couple of weeks ago. Think I'll cut the busted shaft off in front of the labeling and make a desk pen.
(Yes it was luck more than skill but I'm not telling. :biglaugh:
its always the goldtips that get robin hooded!
Awesome :D
Congrats. Mount it on the wall.
In a bag target no less. Nice shootin!
I'm sorry for your loss.
:)
That's the main reason I use the nock end weight adapters. Not only can you add extra weight but in the event of that happening you only lose a nock and not a whole arrow
Great shot by the way. :thumbsup: I didn't mean to leave that off. :notworthy:
Ahhh, the bittersweet of it all! :goldtooth:
:thumbsup:
