Default RE: Whats tips your practice arrows ? Do you hunt with practice arrows ?

since my broad heads fly the same as my field tips
i use my field tips to practice and use the same arrows for hunting and for practice and for 3 d .
im so supersticious that even though i have like 3 dozen arrows i use the same 4 all year round for everything ,just cant get over it [:@]
i shoot at 3 d targets
and 80 percent of practice is from the ground

Default RE: Whats tips your practice arrows ? Do you hunt with practice arrows ?

1)Whats tips are on your practice arrows ?

100gr field tips...going to switch to a more blunt bullet point to prolong target life. 100gr Slick Tricks when broadhead practicing.

2)Do you hunt with the same arrows you practice with ?

Try not to. I have a set (3-4) sitting in my quiver, that I take off the bow after season. They'll stay in there until I put the quiver back on.

3)What do you usually shoot at ? (target)

Morell field range bag (suspended) mostly. Love it. I have a Gander Mountain block knock-off that gets shot at occasionally, but doesn't hold up too well. I also have a Yellow Jacket broadhead target.

4) How often do you shoot, from ground or stand ?

I'm currently not "shooting," as I'm training my muscles during my left hand switch. Once I get rolling I will shoot anywhere from 4-7 days a week. 100% from the ground, although my "range" has a lot of elevation.

3)What do you usually shoot at ? (target) block, several other cheapo foam targets or 2 old beat up 3-d deer


4) How often do you shoot,from ground or stand? Hard to say. Sometimes every day, sometimes once a week. 95% is from the ground, but I have a stand hung in the yard that I practice from when the season nears.
