This gives me a grand idea.

Make all black FAT line catcher arrows, with black everything. Then market them as " Prick arrows for 3D

When I did my first 3D, we rotated shooters. That way we all had a chance to shoot first, or last.

They all nagged when I shot first that my big fletchings, and fat aluminum shafts were blocking them.[8D]

Never thought or heard about the color being problems for someone, but it is interesting the take on the subject.

The way I view 3D, and I just got started. It is like golf and billards/pool put together. It is a game. Rotating shooters, lets the first shooter block the ring, keeping everyone else at bay. Or if it is a big ring, something for everyone else to shoot for. Replacing nocks and torn fletchings, is part of the game. If someone tears my shaft up, payback is in order! That is what makes it fun and we have a blast trying to tear the others arrows up. By the hollering and laughing through the woods on tournament day, I' d say someone else was having the same fun as us.

I can' t wait till Sunday!!! My 2nd, 3D tournament! This time my wife is shooting too! I can' t wait for her to tear up my shafts. PAYBACK!
