You could probably get away with shooting it, but the safe thing to do would be to retire the arrow.

I figured that. Aluminums haven't gave me this problem your reffering to.

RE: Is it true??
 

yeh they just bend and warp...

RE: Is it true??
 

Oh really! How long you been shooting aluminums?

RE: Is it true??
 

I still have alm shafts from 1o years ago, and they are probably the safer shaft - but i still use carbon/with alm core

I do the same thing,if not sure get rid of them,after seeing that pic of a arrow through the hand thats all needed.........

RE: Is it true??
 

well i have one that im using now that i knocked off and replaced. I looked over it and it looks great and shoots fine, so i guess it's ok......

RE: Is it true??
 

Always check your arrows for damage. I had one that had a hairline crack near the nock. It took two of us to find it.

RE: Is it true??
 

Well I have shot several times since then, I guess it's ok, I just don't see any damage and the cost of arrows is rediculous, I just want to throw a good out !!

RE: Is it true??
 

happened to me last evening shooting. I thought I robin hooded it but took half the nock off. I had a spare that the insert was missing so I just switched nocks and it shoots fine.
