Broadhead Practice tip for Newbies
Just a tip, when practicing with broadheads, make sure you first label each arrow, and then ONLY shoot one arrow, retrieve, then shoot another.
I just killed three shafts and/or broadheads by shooting them all at the same time, so close together they contacted each other in the target and either scraffed the broadhead or Robinhooded.
Very expensive lesson, indeed.
More dollars to Cabelas tonight.
Oh, and more dollars due to my shafts being cut for broadheads, I just bought some turkey Arrowdynamic Guillotines, and found out Ineed to add at least two inches to my shaft to safely shoot them...
This isn't a hobby, it is a lunch eater![:@]

You should have learned that lesson after wrecking shaft #1 (#2 at the most)
Just kidding man...............could be worse.......you could have shot a bunch at the same spot and NOT damaged anything [

RE: Broadhead Practice tip for Newbies
Took the words right out of my mouth. Whenever I practice with a block (or similar square target), I have 5 bullseyes. Two on the top, two on the bottom, one in the middle......I never shoot at the same bullseye twice, duringa round.(use those 2"red stickers,or a spot of red spray paint)
