Default Funny thing happened at the range.....

I just bought a new release today and added 4lbs. to my draw weight, so my sight was off. While attempting to group to seehow farto go, my second shot splattered the first arrow, scoring my second Robin Hood ever. I know it's not anything to brag about, but thought it was cool and figured I'd share! Love this Fred Bear Instinct....

Just finished sighting in my Bear truth today chose it over the Instinct mainly because of the weight. Gotta love are bears.

I really liked the Truth, but this is my first bow, so I chose the Instinct to keep the price down. Regardless, I already can see that Fred Bear will be my bow of choice for many years to come!

I think a Robin hood would be worth splattering an arrow Heck, i have busted many a nock, tore vanes, grooved shafts, busted shafts, but im yet to get my first Hood[]Congrats!!

Thanks gents. I prefer to call my two "luck" much rather than skill [8D] Regardless, looks like I have agood reason to grabthat dozen from the shop tomorrow I've been eyeing!

P.S. My first was at 58#, today's 64# , and the difference in how far each went in is crazy.58# went in only about 7-8 inches, this last one has the fletching of the second arrowtouching where the nock was on the first, completely buried. I feel sorry for the hogs in a few weeks!

NIce work, they are always fun when they happen, but of course it does hit the pocket a little.
