Default Trials and Tribulations.... grr....

First off, I'm down to one shootable arrow and can't afford to buy more.(or to have the ones I have refletched) I shot the blazers off 3 of the 4 shootable arrows I had. So my practicing has been all but a treadmill exercise(walking to and from the target more than shooting. So much for measuring consistancy. [:@] Hopefully I can get things squared away in time to hunt.....

My trip to the family spread has been put off till December. So that buys me an extra 3 weeks but man is it getting slim....

Then the coup de' gras.... I walk into my "primary employer" this morning after a 5 day "vacation" to work an extra 40 hrs for my "secondary employer", just to walk out 5 minutes later with my severance check. I've changed jobs alot in the last 6-7 yrs, but only once before was I fired, and it was for an understandable offense. This time I got no more explaination than "overall job performance"... AT LEAST TELL ME WHAT I DID WRONG!!! Grr... sorry... had to vent.

Now if I can just fight off the temptation to spend a chunk of that severance onone of those package "ready to hunt" new bows! LOL.... I think I may have a banking error this weekend... LOL...

I'm no stranger to adversity... after all God said not that we would be hunky-dorry because of our faith but that we WILL be tested and tried.... so here we go again...

Thanks for letting me vent... somewhat off topic, but it does have a little to do with archery...

Hang in there Davoh. You only live life once. If you do it right, once is enough. Hope things work out for you. Stay strong.

How many vanes are missing off each arrow? A two vaned arrow will shoot rather well and just as accurate. I watch a guy win a tournament with a 2 vane arrow because he didn't want to change when he was shooting so well with it. I would want it fletched correctly for broadheads.

So, what do you need fletched up? How many, what colors, did you keep the vanes....If you can send them to me, I will fletchthem for you...that should be inexpensive.
