Title: First Trad Robin Hood
Post by: fnshtr on April 27, 2015, 04:14:00 PM
I've broken plenty of nocks and a few shafts, but this is a first for me.

Not sure that I'm happy about it... expensive!

Of course, if it takes me as long to get the second as it did this first one, I'll not live that long!   :knothead:

I almost got one once, but the grain ran out on the arrow I hit, so it didn't stick.

Congratulations!  Don't worry about the expense.  I haven't had one since I let the training wheels and associated aids go.

I have only gotten one with trad gear, promptly pulled the good arrow out of the ruined one and kept shooting!

Oh very cool! Well you get to re use at least 1 arrow and another for the trophy room!!

The first is cool, and should be saved as a trophy. After that, it is just expensive and annoying!

Congrats on some good shooting!

Seeing where the first arrow hit, the Robin Hood is extra special. Nice shooting!

Freaky thing , I have done that 14 times with my Bear Takedown and never with any of my other bows . The freaky thing is , I don't shoot that bow as well as I do a couple of my other ones .
Splain that .   :dunno:

Nice shooting, bro. All I can say is 'been there, done that'. Fun the first time, but really annoying from there on.

Thanks for the "congrats". I'm shooting better than ever, but I also realize how much LUCK is involved. Shoot enough and it will happen at some point.

That is actually my second and third shots... the first shot was removed because it made the others look "not so great".     :D  

Now, if I can only find those gobblers I was seeing and hearing regularly just last week!  :pray:
