You keep shooting in tight groups like that you'll be buying a dozen every month. Spread out your shots and your arrows will last longer. Nice shootin' Tex!

Have only done that with my crossbow, never my compound bow. My excaliper I never shoot a second arrow at the same spot. You will robinhood everytime.

Default Never did that as a matter of fact

Never shot so many arrows, at one time, at a target.

But then I shoot at my private solo range and call it archery practice and walking exercise. I get a lot of walking in, while I practice with the arrows. I believe in keeping both the arms and legs fit.

I'm also cheap. Don't like doing Robin Hood's and like those tenth and twentieth time with arrows. My arrows get so old, they're ready for social security.
