 New arrows each get ONE shot
« Thread Started on Sept 10, 2009, 1:48pm »

I had made up 6 26.5 " arrows then came back to 26.0".
I built 6 new arrows Saturday with arrow and broadhead
lettered A-F.Today after spending the day hanging a stand
and scouting I figured it's time to see if I have any duds that
I can't trust.They each got one shot with brand new 100 gr
Nap Nightmares at 20 yards.I had the string twisted up
yesterday so was shooting a little high.A,B +C were in an
inch then I think I started getting nervous.Anyway 5 were in
a line 1"x2 1/4 with D a little high(me).Just about ready to
see if all this work will pay off. :(

Yes, that's the kind of work that I admire. Know your weapon, and wield it like a pro. Great job. :(
