    I never have. I definitely want to, I don't understand the arrow expense thing. A lot of people have no problem dropping 1000+ on a bow, but get pissed breaking 2 arrows...

    I've done several. They're neat every time, but I hate ruining my arrows.

    Define ''Robin Hood'' please??

    I've hit a couple of arrows before but didn't count them...

    A ''Robin Hood'' for me has to have only two arrows on the target, and the first one has to be ''bull's eye''...

    Other the that, if you shoot 20 arrows on the target before removing them... eventually you'll hit one. :o(

    I have busted a lot of nocks but never actually split one up the middle.

    I've put arrows through fletching but never a Robin Hood, and I'd be a little sad to lose an arrow!

    With the price of arrows I really try not to, but shot one the other day trying to fine tune my sights and which arrows where grouping best, unfortunately now I'm down 2 that obviously where grouping well.

    Yup once, didn't realize what I had done until Trevor told me. I had only been shooting a short period of time before it happened.

    I've shot 11 or 12 now. That was 10-11 more than I should have. I shoot different spots now. Crap got expensive in a hurry. Shot the last one at 50yd and I said no more! My wife was convinced I just liked buying new arrows.

    I've never had one and really never try. Most of my targets have multiple aiming points and arrows are too damn expensive. I have ruined a couple of my buddies fletchings and nocks though...... :evilgrin:

    NOPE... busted nocks, poked holes in fletching and scraped arrows, but no RH's. I don't shoot groups - FMJ's are expensive.
