Title: Only took 7 yrs...1st. robin hood
Post by: BEN on August 23, 2014, 07:30:00 AM
Out with some of the local club members yesterday morning , joining them for their daily bowhunting tuneup---(must  be nice to be retired like them)   :rolleyes:

One of the guys put his arrow perfectly where I wanted to go...the others were all joking about who's going to split that sucker..My turn came up and "CRACK!"  My first Traditional "Robin Hood"..maybe it doesn't count since both arrows aren't mine, but that orange nock was where I was looking   :biglaugh:

Too bad you didn't have a sizeable bet on that shot.

Takes me back to my first one.  What a fantastic way to destroy not one but two arrows!!  Hahaha.  Congrats.  I wish you many more.

Great shot! The first is nice but after that it gets expensive.

Nice!

I would think a "true" Robin Hood would be one like yours.  

Didn't the legend say Robin Hood split his opponent's arrow and not his own?

hahaha! That is true ^^^^     :cool:  

Much less expensive when it's the "other guy's" arrow first.

if you were trying to split that nock then it absolutely counts. If it was an accident then it just that an accident.
Nice shot!!!!

I agree with others, to me a real Robin Hood is like a called shot in a game of pool "8 ball in the corner pocket"

Great call and shot Ben!

A Robin Hood is shooting an arrow into another arrow, that's  it, very simple. Congrats on a great shot.

Don't let others tell you you have to call the shot, or only counts if it's a bullseye.
