Just wanted to share the joy!
 

I was shooting my bow today and shot a Robin Hood!! I was excited and thought I'd share the joy with everyone. This is my second one. Good for me, hell on my arrows!!:D Not bad for a chic, huh?;)

awsome, hang them on the wall like trophies. keep it up....

RE: Just wanted to share the joy!
 

Tehehe, nice! I can't seem to do anything but tear my fletchings all up!

RE: Just wanted to share the joy!
 

Congrats! I still never got a robin hood. Busted a nock tonight and tore a few fletchings tho[:@]

A robinhood is a testamate to excelent grouping. Sounds as though you shoot very well. A couple more of those and I bet you start putting arrows in diffrent areas on the target. My target has 3 diffrent bullseyes on it and I now make it a point to shoot one arrow at each. Keep up the good work and if you plan to continue to shoot like that I'd recommend buying some stock in your arrow manufacturer.;)

Congratulations! They definitely are exciting. Some folks go a long time without ever shooting one.

[8D] Just sent an APB to Pike County bucks warning them that Robin Hood's flame, Lady Marion is armed and dangerous. Lay low boys, there a sharpshooter ready and willing to enter Nottingham Forrest.

hunting,

I am unconvinced that you are truely trying to share the joy. I believe if you were truley trying to "share the joy", that you would invite myself and a small group of friends up to Pike Co. for a little bowhunting;):D

Congrats on the robinhood! I haven't had one in a couple of years but then again, I don't shoot two arrows at the same spot anymore either:D

RE: Just wanted to share the joy!
 

Congratulations HPCIL, I have to try to get robinhoods all the time to live up to my name, LOL, But to tell you the truth I have only gotten 2. Keep up the Good Shooting!!! :)

Thanks everyone!! In reply to silent, you are more than welcome in Pike County anytime!!!:D

im new to bowhunting so could someone tell me what a robbin hood and fletchings and knocks are???????

RE: Just wanted to share the joy!
 

Robin hood- When you shoot one of your arrows into another one.
Nock- The very end of an arrow. You place the string in it.
Fletching- Feathers or veins. Right under the nock.:)

RE: Just wanted to share the joy!
 

Nice!!! I never shoot at the same target. I have five little one on my target. When I do I just ruin my arrow. I either break the nocks, tear the veins, or just bend the arrows though.

RE: Just wanted to share the joy!
 

A robinhood is when you shoot an arrow and it hits exactly inside another arrow, which when you look at it, it looks like one long arrow.

A fletch is the feathers on the arrow which help stabilizes an arrow in flight, usually have 3 feathers, and some arrows you will see 4 fletches.

Nocks are the small plastic pieces that are forked shaped either inserted over the arrow or inside the arrow behind the fletches, the nock helps hold an arrow in place on the bowstring.

Welcome to archery/bowhunting !!!!!!! :)
