So then you had to trespass to get your arrow back. How do you feel about that?  Personally I tend to not like factory farm systems that don't let the neighbors bow hunt on the property, makes me feel like I have no place to go, those border lines could just as well be hurricane fences.

I dont feel at all bad about it. My going into that field for 5 minutes time may have prevented hundreds of dollars of damage to a harvesting machine plus it saved me the cost of a Magnus broadhead a XX75 arrow and a heavy brass insert!

I got a metal detector last Christmas.  It is oh so sweet for finding those arrows that just seem to get lost in nothing at all.  I need to bring it with me to my stumping spots and find some that I have lost over the years.
Take a kid hunting!

That's cool you found it.  My son found one of my lost ones months later and it was aged but still good (easton st epic) the rest of my lost ones are in that OTHER dimension.  haha

Never place your target in front of a "black hole".      :D  

  Glad you found it ..............I wouldn't have felt guilty about venturing onto that ground to hunt for an arrow either.
Hmmmmm. I know you think you understand what you thought I said, but I'm
not sure that what you heard is what I actually meant!

Look at the bright side. Now you have a perfect reason to buy a new metal detector. Mine has come in handy several times when I have lost an arrow in the thick stuff.
