    Of doing THIS?

    A Carbon Express Maxima 350 right into another. It went about 1/3rd of the way down the shaft, ripping it apart. It sucks to lose the arrows, but WAY cool to see it. LOL (Oh, please ignore my poor fletching job. I have gotten much better and cleaner at it.)

    Shooting a set last night. Last arrow of the evening did not sound right when it hit. I walked down and saw this.

    Dumb luck, I could never do that again if I tried. Anyone else ever done this?

    Very cool, nice shooting!

    I saved my first one. The next three I pulled out the good arrow as they are too expensive to just be sitting around not used. After the first one you get kinda mad that you just wrecked a $15 + arrow.

    Good news though, you are shooting well :tu:

    I got a robinhood like that within the first 40 arrows i ever shot out of my first bow. wasn't even sighted in correctly yet, it was just dumb luck! And i have a buddy who is borderline obsessive compulsive about practice shooting. he's an amazing shot because of it, but at one point a few years ago he shot three robinhoods in three days. i have never seen someone more mad about doing something that cool! hahah

    Like this? 30 yards about a week ago. Barely even split the other arrow, almost a perfect insert.

    Very nice! My second time shooting, ever, I broke off 2 nocks off. I decided to shoot at different spots on my homemade target because I didn't want to keep replacing them. Or worse, arrows. I know it's cool to do, but I don't want to spend the money on them.
