lmao, i was trying to think of something to call it if it was normal, but could it be that the arrows are underspined, or am i just lokking for an excuse to get new arrows.

I've been practice shooting at 75yds for about a week now, (no, I'm not gonna take a kill at that distance), and I can listen to the arrow for a good amount of time at that distance, and I've got no sound from my arrows. the twang of the string and the thunk into the target. I dont think your arrow is supposed to make any sound.

i have only been shooting it for 2 days, i am shooting what i think is a 3 inch circle at 30yds but it is hard to tell when the arrow passes thru the block and lays on the ground.
P.S. it is a 3 yr old block that well...., has seen better days.

Its your broadheads...could be your veins but something has to be wrong for them to making any noise. But my guess is broadheads. I shoot rage and they make quite the hissing sound going down range. Never had a problem with the sound they make...have harvested deer at 40 yards and in withthem and never a problem. good luck.

No all the blazers I've shot do this. But deer don't know what's going on. No big deal.
