I usually carry 3 broadheads. I' ve used 2 before, and actually knocked my LAST arrow while in a stand. That was NOT a proud moment.

I' ll probably carry the same amound this year though.

The practice tip to shoot at the last spot you saw a deer is a good idea. Everything DOES look different when you get down out of your tree. An arrow sticking out of a stump or a tree would sure come in handy. Sucks that you have to waste an arrow to do it though.

Paintball gun? hmmmmmmm....[:-]
