That's what happens when you get kinky with those things in bed.

No, but you need to make that bed.  Or get a good woman to do it for you like I did.    ;)

No.  Did that happen on release or impact?  Eric.

Awww, just wrap a little duct tape on. It'll be fine!

Haha...And the one thing you'll never hear a redneck say is...duct tape won't fix that.

I was out rabbit hunting and just wondered how it would stand up to a concrete block. It was a 5/16 ramin shaft with a snuffer... it didnt hurt the snuffer much at all.

The Snuffer is tough but also the shaft is not that bad.

I had that happen to arrows a couple of times, all of them were cedar.  I even fixed one and the arrows shot/worked fine.  However, instead of duct tape, as recommended previously, I used tite bond II and wrapped it in three places with sinew.  I have fixed several other arrows with smaller cracks that shot/worked fine after being glued and wrapped with sinew, even used them to kill deer.

"Never went to bed with an ugly woman but I sure woke up with a few."

I'd hang that arrow on the wall someplace, anyplace. Getting the cinder block up there would be too much work.  :rolleyes:

Maybe not quite in the same manner but same result.

For the risk, I don't think I would bother with fixing a ramin shaft. Like Mike said, stick it on the wall as a conversation piece.

Yep, direct and square hit on rock or concrete, the energy has to go somewhere.

Yes, I have seen that...several times, but never on a bed.

Haven't seen a mid shaft split like that, but I have a collection of the Robin Hood type, split from the nock end by a second arrow. Got two aluminum arrows that are telescoped together with a 3 inch sleeve joint, making a single 56 inch arrow, in case anyone has a real long draw length.
