Sounds like some good shooting but this doesn't qualify as a RH. To get a true RH, you nned to first hit the bulls eye (or what ever you are shooting at) with the first arrow, then sling a second arrow at the idential target and stick in in the back of the other. Typically this will ruin both arrows and eventually becomes annoying. After doing this a few times you will avoid shooting at the same spot over and over.

At $12-$15 an arrow, I stopped shooting at the same spot long ago.
I try to avoid "robin hoods".

I am still not sure why others continue to pursue.

To each their own, I guess.

The first one I got I was running across the yard almost doing cart wheels (Almost). After that one it was painful. I can think of better ways to spend $25.

I shoot at different targets now.

No kidding!! Arrows are too expensive for that. I shoot the Easton A/C/C arrows/wrapped/ with blazer vanes. Really good arrows.

My wife told (warned) me that at $140 a dozen - I better make these things last the rest of my life!!! I am VERY careful with them....because I'm scared of her!
