RE: wasting arrows
 

I think I'm pretty close now
Well with a little more practice,you should be stacking 3-4 arrows on top of one another consistently.;)
I dont shoot for the same spot,gets a little to expensive at $10-14 bucks apiece.Shoot your arrows on different spots on the target:eek:
Great shooting though,2 robbin hoods.Looks like you got everything broke in and ready to go.
Good luck this season:)

That's some nice shooting! Somewhat bittersweet when you shoot a robin hood and get excited but then later realize how much it just cost you. ;)

Nice shootin' there but you are right. It definitely can get expensive!

I pulled a Robin Hood once and I learned from it. I now only shoot one arrow and then retrieve that arrow or I shoot many arrows by aim a few inches to other parts of my target. Never had an issue with damaging another arrow after that first time.

Thats good shooting. I've done that six times and at about 12 dollars an arrow i decided that was the end of that and started shooting at more than one target.

P.S. I would save at least one of those so that you can prove you really did it.

I normally shoot at different rings but after resetting everything and trying to get it fine tuned I like to shoot one ring to get a better idea of grouping/flight. I've hit robinhoods in the past, not within a week of each other though, but generally try to salvage the 2nd arrow. It was kind of cool at first and still is a little but I would much rather have the arrows. [:@]
