Mike that's just a little arrow kiss! haha Be careful not to shoot this arrow if it seems cracked. Can't tell in the picture...but it seems there is a slight crack...?
Nice shooting!

Nah, it's O.K. more of a dent than a crack.  As long as I've got you here David, any special treatment for these arrows, or tips, i.e. I've heard of some people rubbing the point end with soap to prevent target burn?  If I have a dent like this, should I seal it with something?  Etc.

The bar soap on the shafts works pretty good. Take a paper towel and buff them up afterwards. I'd put some super glue on the dent. Just make sure you lay it down so that the glue stays in the dent.

If anyone's hesitant to try some wood arrows because they aren't sure of spine or "how they'll fly", just tell Snag your setup and then believe what he recommends.
I did some paper tuning yesterday just because I hadn't done it before and wanted to see how my arrows "tuned".
Here's three shots from 3,6, and 9 feet with no adjustments to brace, nock, etc.  Snag was spot on with his spine recommendation.
