Title: A different kind of Robin Hood :)
Post by: coaster500 on August 24, 2011, 10:09:00 PM
I did a trade and got a new to me bow today. I did what I usually do and grabbed a bunch of arrows to shoot and see what the new bow liked.
Well I shot a few woodies and when I went to pull them, one of the tips came off in the target. I figured I'd try and get it out later. I then tried a Gold Tip Trad the only one spined close to the wood arrow. Well one arrow a slight metallic sound and I don't have to look for that woodies tip  :)

The Gold Tip is inside the glue on...

good save bro!    :clapper:  

I've got a nice  collection of field points and broad heads in the hollow leg of my 3D deer target. i think amputation is going to be the only way to get em back though...

Schweet!     :thumbsup:    

Better to be lucky than good eh?!!  Maybe you are just that good.  With my luck, I would ahve broken the carbon and still not have the woodie tip.  Good on you man!!

Bob.

Ain't that sweet!  :)

Was shooting some 5/16 bbl tapered ash once at a shoot..heard that same "tink" sound...and when we pulled my arrow, I had imbedded someone else's pulled off 11/32 point on my shaft!  :)

That has to be one of those things that is so far from the norm, but if you shoot enough, funny things happen.

What a cool experience!  :)

That would be me. In fact, I did it twice in the same week. What are the oods of that?

Here is the first one. I was using Heavy Woodies, with Bodkin Points, out of my 100# Howard Hill.

Did that with a woodsman into a field point.  They are still joined.

I wish I could say I did it on purpose but both shots were 1 1/2 low and slightly right. I'm
thinking about wearing that on around my neck Jim  :)

I have done that a couple times.  Hate it when you screw up an otherwise perfectly good arrow.
