can you shoot through the screen on db blind with feathers??

[yekrut]

so can you or will it mess up arrow flight? who's done it and how did it work out! thanks

[Eric S]

Never a problem for me. I shoot snuffers and try to line up the blades with the feathers. Not sure that matters but can't hurt any. My buddy shot two blades and had no problems.

[Friend]

Feathers will not be the issue when shooting through the screen.

[yekrut]

I use bear razor heads 4 blade how bout that??

[Glunt]

Shouldn't be an issue.  I've shot through the screen a bunch with 2, 3 and 4 blades with no problems.  It is sorta odd visually shooting through the mesh and I would practice it a few times before the real thing.

i have shot snuffers, ribteks and grizzlys through the net of DBB all with 5 inche fletching in shield cut and never an issue.

[rastaman]

Works fine..I use 4-fletch without a problem.

[Dirtybird]

You shouldn't have a problem at all.  Usually it's mechanical broadheads that cause problems out of mesh.

[archeryx]

Confirming all of the above. Not a problem!  Now get in that blind and get it done. WOOHOO!

i shot threw one for turkeys this year with a muzzy phantom,bird came in behind me and had to drop a window to shoot him,i never shot threw one before and it didnt affect my shot whatssoever

[K.S.TRAPPER]

Yes, you can!

We have shot many deer, turkeys, coyotes, and raccoons through the netting and never had a problem. Don't pay attention to the net just focus on your target and forget about it. You do your part and the arrow will fly true as long as you have a well tuned set up.

I even have film and pics of Guru shooting deer and turkeys through the netting with a string tracker. We watched the films over and over in slow motion and still the arrows flew perfect.

Yessir...it fine! Zwickeys zip right on through with no ill effects at all. Now back when I shot wheel bows I tried some expandables through the mesh and it wasnt pretty. It makes them do all kinds of crazy things.

How far away does the tip of your arrow need to be when shooting thru the screens?  Can it be right up against it or does the arrow need to be completely off your string and bow  before going thru the screen to work properly?

Not a problem whatsoever. I use 3 blade broadheads and 5 in feathers.

It really doesnt matter much. I sit at the back of the blind that way Ive got plenty of room to draw and not snag the netting as I move the bow into position in my DB Matrix 360.

Sorry...I meant to quote Kamm1004...
