    and it was with a re-curve.

    At every following target the archer whose arrow I trashed insisted on recovering his arrows before I shot again, especially on the short ones.

    Of course the compound crowd reckon they get them all the time. 🙄

    Proper arrows – POC? Used to make them myself, still got a fletching jig somewheres…

    I was ‘bowhunter’ (compound, nae sight, with a short stabiliser) last time I shot field – been a few years so the styles have no doubt changed!

    I thought it was only a ‘Robin Hood’ if you did it to your own arrow? Still cool though- did he let you keep the arrow so you can mount it?

    Thats cool. Used to do archery at school but was doing well to hit the target.

    I could of kept it if I wanted it. But my arrow was OK and I didn’t want carbon fibres all over the place. Photo will suffice.

    I don’t know what “POC” is, but I was a fletcher also.

    First I’ve heard of it, so unlikely. I’ve not shot outside of an “experience day” type environment in years (and last time I did I was embarrassingly bad!)

    Me an’ all.

    46lb

    That’s a chunky bow. Mine was, er, 38@26″ IIRC, I’d have to check, and it was on the heavy side for shooting all day. That said, I’m only little.

    If you didn’t have so big a bow you might be able to get to full draw properly. (-: And, Sort your neck out.
