Post by: MIKEXRAY on February 26, 2010, 03:15:04 PM: Nice and bitter sweet as described. I had my first last year but only lucky since I was at 40 yards. After ruining both arrows I now shoot at 5 different bulls eyes even @ 40 yards let alone closer. Mike

Post by: quadrafire on February 26, 2010, 07:32:23 PM: I did a double robin hood at 30 yrds last year, carbon gold tips. I thought that was kinda cool, but don't want to repeat it.
Was yours traditional? The fletching looks like it might be.

Post by: Teachers Pet on February 26, 2010, 07:45:44 PM: Nice stack. One time was enough for me too. :yike: Now I shoot 3 arrows, 3 targets. Its not like getting a hole in one and being able to use the ball again and again.

Post by: carpsniperg2 on February 26, 2010, 08:10:58 PM: yep sweet and sad at the same time. i only shoot at the same target if i am past 40 yards for fear of the cost of arrows :yike:

Post by: konrad on February 27, 2010, 06:26:07 PM: That's why the 5-spot was invented...and why Easton Technical is still in business.

Looks like it's time to move back or get more spots to shoot at!

Post by: ribka on February 28, 2010, 09:04:10 AM: 20 yd with trad gear. Very impressive and some tight groups there too.

Lots of broken nocks, torn fletching for me. 15 years since last robin hood and that was aluminum.

Post by: Shootmoore on February 28, 2010, 10:25:10 AM: Nice shooting! I have had a few throughout the years but usually its blind bad luck on my part. You know the X ring is over to the right and I robinhood an arrow off the X.

Post by: h2ofowlr on February 28, 2010, 07:20:34 PM: I use 1" orange circles these days. They get to expensive these days to robinhood to many. The near robinhoods can damage shafts and if your shooting some of these speed bows the shafts can blow up upon release and jump your cables similar to a dry fire. I will tight group the rifles and single shoot the dots with the arrows. :twocents:

??? Do you mean you did two different robinhoods? Or you robin hooded an arrow and the robin hooded that arrow?
