The angle of entry seems a little to horizontal too, seeing it came from 55 yds away.
For the record, the design of The Block target can cause arrows to follow the faces of the layers, which are at a different angle than the angle of trajectory. Rather than merely being skeptical, why not consider how it might be possible. It's really not that hard to believe.

Nice shooting, Zak. I'm glad to see that you shoot enough to wear out a target. That's far more than can be said for some bowhunters. I hope you get a shot at a real brute this season. Shooting like that, you're bound to hit your mark.

Great shooting!! Practicing at long range will make the closer shots seem MUCH easier. Keep it up.

My arrows look like that at 80 yards. (horizontal)

I'm glad to see you got the bow back together and shooting well before the season opened. You cut it close though. Now get out there and arrow a deer.
