That is agreat story. My luck would be that if I were trying to get a robinhood, I wouldn't get one.

One time I had just made a dozen alum. arrows. These arrows were made for shooting in the old IBO indoor hunter rounds. You shot indoors at 20 yards at a black and white animal target. You couldn't see the bullseye from the shooting line, but you could use your binos and pick a spot. It was difficult to shoot a 300 on a target like that. There was a good chance that you'd shoot a glance out on each 5 arrow end. You shot this just like an NFAA 300 round,except you couldn't see the bullseye.

Anyway, the arrows I made were super slams 2115s with 3" fletch and saunders combo points. The combo points were supposed to glance out less. Well, I shot the first round and had robinhooded, no big deal. Then my GF shot and robbinhooded also! 4 arrows out of a dozen gone the first time they were shot! Dang it!
