    shot a deer last December, arrow never recovered, too much snow and never found it.

    fast foward almost 9 months in the woods to set a camera on an area I found a lot of buck activity sign when tracking that deer and I find arrow.

    appears in tact, nothing chewed on it, no visible cracks and passes my flex test. but its been in the elements for 9 months...

    this like the previous post is more of a conversation piece, thanks Justin for putting that on Facebook, the 100+ comments were great... some people didnt even post memes or gifs. I can take it though

    I can't shake this image from my head. Anytime I have even the slightest question about an arrow I think of this picture and remove the nock and field tip from the arrow and it gets retired.
