Title: Footed carbon arrows sticking in targets
Post by: goldflinger on September 20, 2012, 09:36:00 AM
I have read a couple of past threads about things shooters do to keep their footed Carbon arrows from sticking in bag targets. I have that problem as well from the carbon collars 3 rivers sells. My question is, do they stick into Rinehart Targets? Are they easy or difficult (probably "annoying" would be a better word) with the 18-1?

I taper the back side before I epoxy them on, just a slight bevel on a grinder and they come right out.

The foam will make it easier to pull them out,but it will most of the time pull some foam with it.

I put a bevel on bot ends and on the back end I rub epoxy around it for a really smooth transition for pulling from targets.

I will try some EPoxy and see if that helps. Thanks
