Default Practice shooting

Well I knew it was going to happen, busted an arrow. Robin hood! Thats sucks! My groups are getting very tight and I'm very impressed with the way the Montana shoots! I might have to start shooting practice like I do with the Compound by not shooting at the same spots and shoot less arrows, buy another bag, ??????. Sucks, more trips up and down the stairs!!!!!

I tell ya this instinctive shooting is FUN!!!!!!!

If I ever robinhood and arrow with trad gear I will be so happy. It would take a miracle for that to happen now.

Congrats on your good shooting.

I just got a Redhead bag target from Bass Pro. (I think it was $30 or $40.) It works great for practice tips, but not recommended for broadheads. It has either 16 or 25 bulls on one side. Great for shooting lots of shots without hitting your arrows.

That a boy BHF! Good shooting! I've done it 3 times myself surprisingly at 20 yards and I'm not a super shot by any means at the yardage, just lucky and spendy!

Those robinhoods will always bring a smile to your face. If you're going to trash an arrow, I can't think of a more satisfying way to to it.

Ive Robbin Hooded many with my compound (that was until I got to cheap to shoot at the same spot), but never with my trad bows. Ive knocked off a lot of knocks and blew threw a bunch of arrows, but never had one stick. Good shooting.
