Hi, all. I just wanted to pass on a quick tip that may help someone else out. I have been trying to find the right arrow for my bow. I've been shooting full length carbons to narrow the spine range down. Now that I have some that are flying really well I want to cut them down a little to fine tune. I tried to remove the glued in inserts with the old drill bit in the arrow trick, but that didn't work at all. While cleaning the garage I found a slide hammer. I inserted an 8-32 machine screw into it, and screwed it into the insert. One tap of the slide and the insert popped right out. Now I can continue to fine tune the arrows.
You can rent a slide hammer for a few dollars, or purchase one for less than $20.00. All in all a good investment for the arrows alone, but has tons of other uses.
