RE: 2 deer $50!!!
$5 per arrow
$3 - 8 per BH
I'm only launching $13 tops out there at deer. Considering that I find over half of them in reusable condition, it's not so bad. Factor in how much a dozen arrows cost, and how many shots you get out of a dozen arrows, vs. how many shots you get out of a rifle, even something cheap like a .22 magnum, and ARCHERY is still much cheaper. I've probably got 30,000 shots on the 42 arrows that I've paid a total of about $180 for, with a .22 Magnum at $8/50 round, that would be somewhere around 1100 shots, give or take 100, with .22 LR ammo, at $10/500 that'd besomewhere around 9,000 shots, so archery would be EVEN cheaper than shooting a.22 at that rate, factor in $120 for strings, that will make up another6,000 shots or so, but I'm still cheaper shooting a bow, and I don't have neighbors complaining that they have LEAD flying through their backyards.
