Shooting indoors at work today. I guess I was getting tired and flung an arrow over the target and into a 6 ton granite surface plate from about 20 yards. It hit so hard the knock popped off the arrow and hit something just a few feet to my left :) Live and learn...

When I read the title of this thread, my first thought was, "I bet the granite won"> :knothead: :knothead: :knothead:

Footing.
I wonder what the Ferguson Heavy Hunter shaft would have done. Has anyone tested the claims for that shaft?
I have had some stumping arrows come back looking a lot like that. never good...
You get the same thing with arrow vs floor jack. I even had an aluminum footing on it.
And the same thing with arrow VS Stone foundation. Also with arrow vs cement foundation.
We should have really communicated earlier so we wouldnt have broken all these arrows. could have learned from each others mistakes lol. :knothead: :banghead:
That's happened to me several times when I first started to shoot carbon. Then I learned about footing them. That is now part of the arrow building process for me.
All I can say IF YOU FOOT IT, IT WILL NOT FLOWER/ :bigsmyl: MUSHROOM!! they just bounce and need a new nock. :archer:
