Grim Reaper Torture test on a rock at 20 yards. Bad shot placement on the intended Target. (old Long horn spike).

I don't think 5shot even does a rock test. It would just get too costly.[:@]

I've never Hunted from a 12' tripod. It seemed to change my shot placment, but some of the guy's at camp said I should have bent at the waist before taking the shot. Don't know, I just missed my intended target.

You should practice shooting from elevations before you hunt from them. I do most of my shooting at ground level but always practice from an elevated stand before the season to make sure I am on. It does change things. Good luck on your next shot.

I have a 6' tripod set up in the yard. The shot from the tripod is 26 yard. never had a problem. I also practice from the ground. I think maybe just the first shot of the season probaly jitters.

AW, you can still use that arrow.
Just get some hot melt, chewing gum, marine epoxy, and a file to sharpen up that point a wee bit.

Hey, look on the bright side. At least you didn't hit the shoulder bone.

good job.

its alwaays nice seeing other people destroy their arrows too...its fun getting the cheepest dozen of alum's you can and go out and see if you can destroy them all while practicing shooting everything in sight

Innerloc torture test:

Muzzy torture test (well I don' think it was torture for the muzzy), this and the head above were shot at cast iron from a 70 pound compound, 2317 aluminums.

how come the muzzy held up so well and the other is destroyed?
