Default What's your furthest Robin Hood???

I have a little story that I would like to share:

I picked up a bow for the first time in my life last Sept. I mean, as a child, of course i made countless longbows out of string and green Hickory stick....lol Anyhow, I bought a 2003 Diamond Hornet from a buddy of mine (which I have for sale at the moment...PM me if interested...70#/29"). I couldnt keep a 10" at 20 yards. Exactly 1 week later, I brought my groups down to 2" at 20 yards and had my first Robin Hood. I didnt keep the Robin Hood in tack because the 2nd arrow was still shootable. 3 days later, I was shooting out back behind my office like I do everyday. I had another Robinhood ; at 30 yards this time. My business partner was at lunch, so I saved it to show him. I had it laying there on my tailgate when he drove up from lunch. When he stepped out of his truck, I told him, "Hey, come see what I did while you were gone." Then I drew back and fired another at 30 yards....that now familiar sound occurred again. Another robinhood. My partner said, "Wow, look at that!!! Nice shot." Then I showed him the first one.....lol

Anyway, I regret not keeping at least one of these robin hoods. I really didnt know how proud I would be of it here 6 months later. I havent had anymore since then, but i dont shoot the same dot unless its 40+ yards. If I ever get another one, I will keep it.

I am just curious to hear about peoples robinhoods and how far out they've been able to achieve them.
