This batch of arrows I decided to name them "trouble".  So I made a lot of troubles.  And I am a Troubleshooter.

I name individual arrows, but I don`t tell anyone.

I think you both have issues.   :knothead:

  • Leon Stewart 3pc. 64" R/D 51# @ 27"
  • Gordy Morey 2pc. 68" R/D 55# @ 28"
  • Hoyt Pro Medalist, 70" 42# @ 28" (1963)
  • Bear Tamerlane 66" 30# @ 28" (1966)- for my better half
  • Bear Kodiak 60" 47# @ 28"(1965)

I give them a name as soon as I miss!

I got a few with names. Such as oak tree arrow (it's still in the oak), across the holler 9hope to find it eventualy),and so forth!    :bigsmyl:    :bigsmyl:

No I don't usually have mine long enough to get to know them anyway.

no names for my arrows but stone pointed ones i make have been afforded lots of time and effort to be worthy of a name. they are still just arrows though.

I think my buddy Jerry does and we his friends have accused him of it. If he looses one he has to look for it like its a lost child and will look everytime we shoot that course even years later. Me? They are all expendable and just one more sacrifice to the arrow gods.
Bowhunting is "KILL and EAT" not "Catch and Release".....Semper Fi!

Thumper Dunker

Not yet. I will spend hours looking fo some of my arrows. Dug a three foot hole to get a arrow that a ground squirrel took down with him.And that was a week later did not have a shovel at the time I got him. Got to start thinking of some names.

If they fly wrong, I name them "bent".

If you grew up in the UK or OZ you know what I mean.

No, I don't name my arrows. But I do sing to them from time to time. They seem to be fond of that old Harry Nilsson song:

Me and my arrow
Straighter than narrow
Wherever we go, every one knows
It's me and my arrow

Me and my arrow
Taking the high road
Wherever we go, everyone knows
It's me and my arrow

{refrain}
Me and my arrow
(do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Straighter than narrow
Wherever we go, every one knows
It's me and my arrow

Only once.  My first 3D shoot.  I lost an arrow that was found by a later group and put into the "lost & found arrow bucket".  I was able to retrieve it later that evening.  

Named it John Newton-he wrote "Amazing Grace" and one of my favorite lines is "I once was lost, but now I'm found"-like that arrow.

Usually only "son of a bisuit" or "why can't I get this one sharp"

dirtguy

Yeah, I named one #%!!*&$  after I missed a big buck...than I realized the arrow went exactly where the archer aimed it, so I took back all of those bad things I said and sharpened up his broadhead.  I intend to use him again when I see that buck
