lmao, i was trying to think of something to call it if it was normal, but could it be that the arrows are underspined, or am i just lokking for an excuse to get new arrows.

I've been practice shooting at 75yds for about a week now, (no, I'm not gonna take a kill at that distance), and I can listen to the arrow for a good amount of time at that distance, and I've got no sound from my arrows. the twang of the string and the thunk into the target. I dont think your arrow is supposed to make any sound.

i have only been shooting it for 2 days, i am shooting what i think is a 3 inch circle at 30yds but it is hard to tell when the arrow passes thru the block and lays on the ground.
P.S. it is a 3 yr old block that well...., has seen better days.
