Arrow trouble

Nichunter · 11-15-2007, 12:41 PM

Hi,
I have been going to a range to shoot my bow and have a lot trouble pulling my arrow out. I have a puller
but still have lots of problems any suggestions?

Put soap on the 1st 6" of the shaft

Get some Woody's Arrow Lube.

Give up rabbit food and only eat burgers and rare steaks. That'll 'put some lead in your pencil' as my grampa always used to say.
Take your wimply self down there and join the local health club. Start pumping iron.
Bring your girlfriend along so she can pull your arrows.
Take up kung fu. If you watch the movies you know kung fu masters can do ANYTHING, especially the impossible.
Learn to miss. If you don't hit the target, you don't have to pull your arrows.

Or you could just apply some soap or arrow lube like the two incredibly unimaginative posters before me suggested. [8D][8D]

Maybe try aluminum arrows.

Probably a good combination is the libe, as suggested, and pig points so the shaft doesn't get squeezed so hard.

Bob had a good one too. Aluminum is definitely easier than carbon.

If you're using Carbon Express change to something else. And if they are camo then go to black shafts.

It's amazing how easy those Easton Axis FMJ arrows are to pull out of a target.

what are pig points?

Nichunter · 12-20-2007, 10:00 AM

anyone?

A pig point is a conical field point that's aflares out a little larger in diameter than the arrow shaft, then angles in from the largest diameter to blend in with the shaft diameter.
