Yeah, my two favourite carbons breaks were 1. Hitting the target to close to a tree and having the whip snap the back of the arrow off when it made contact with the branch. Just seein ghis bright orange and black object flying through the air was painful. The other was a bionic turkey in which I missed the whole. Drove the point about 2 inches up the shaft and blew the knock off the back end. I think the knock landed like 2 yards in front of me. Oh well, 6-10 bucks an arrow makes you learn to shoot a little better.
