My Labrador retriever that I just put down at Christmas time showed me one time the importance of spraying down my arrows and bowbefore going into the woods. I did the same thing you did (lost an arrow) in some vegetation. She sniffed it right out.

THAT was the "other" lesson I learned that day.

Glad you got your arrow back.

Check the shaft well before shooting it again! Do the bend and listen test.

Wait a second, you sent your daughter and her boyfriend out into the woods behind your house alone? And they came back in 5 minutes? You must have some powerful influence to have put that much fear into him. Please tell me your secret in case there is a little girl in my future.

Oh, and congrats on finding the arrow. I've lost my share losing my concentration as well.

SUCCESS!!
My daughter's boyfriend came over a while ago, so I told him and my daughter that I'd givewhoever found it$10.00. Five minutes later, he called me. It was buried in a tree 40 yards behind the target and about 20 yards to the left. After deflecting off two fences and hitting a tree, the arrow is fine. I had to tweak the broadhead to get it to spin true again, but it's good to go. I'll say one thing... the kid's got good eyes.
Would his eyes have been that good for $5 ? ? ?

Good question, Ed. Probably not. These days, you can't get a seventeen year old to get up out of a chair for five dollars. I'm surprised that ten motivated them.

Was it the money or being alone with your daughter and getting paidfor it?
