Wait till you start getting these. Great at first, then gets expensive. This is my first from back in the 80s with my old person bushmaster. I dont shoot at the same dot anymore because of damage to my shafts with tight groups.

Hey Burnie, Do you ever watch the Myth Busters Show on Cable ?

They try to do that like 100 times even with a vise holding the bow, they were trying to see if they could hit a wooden arrow as Robin Hood did in his legend, But they couldn't even get close, They should have hired you,LOL

Shoot, they need to just get some carbon shafts. I found carbons are much easier to robin hood. The pic I have is of some old gamegetter II shafts. The kind with the tapered end where the knock fit over. That is why I have it haning on my wall. Also because it was my first. I found carbons will swallow arrows if you shot tight groups. I cant afford to keep tearing up shafts.

Man, that robin hood is incredible!!! I've come close before (busted a nock, ripped a fletching), but never a true robin hood (...yet)

That's pretty cool burnie, I don't think I have ever done that with a tapered end aluminum. I have many with bushing types and a few carbons. But not the tapered.

RE: 25 yards, 2 arrows, beat this!

i shot 1 in groups, 4 arrows i think, at 40 yds. I went back to 20 yds and i only hit the circle once, they were about 3in groups. hopefully my 40 yd stays the same and i improve my 20yd
