What do you guys do if you take a shot and miss then you burry the arrow into the ground or a tree. Do you replace or resharpen or leave alone?

You're kidding right?

If it's bent or dinged replace it, if it's not resharpen it, if I can't find it is the only time it would get left alone.

When I shot Muzzy's I had the practice blades but I noticed that they didn't fly exactly the same as the hunting blades and they weren't that much cheaper than just buying another set of actual blades anyway. So I had one dull set for practice and a sharp set for hunting. The real blades do tear up a target a lot faster though, unless you're shooting into a sand bunker.

I don't shoot muzzys, (there a good head though)i shoot a 3 blade snuffer and if that would happen to me i'd sharpen it and if it wouldn't sharpen up right it would go to my practice arrows!
