3D ?
« on: April 10, 2014, 09:55:00 AM »
Hi all  I am thinking about going to some 3D shoots this year . All my carbon arrows (GT ) are footed with aluminum arrow shafts or the collers that 3Rivers sells . Well this make it difficult to get the arrows out of the targets ? Thank You Rick

Depends--shouldn't be too hard though.  A little bar of soap can do wonders for how easy it is to pull.  Just a few swipes on the end, 3" or so, every few targets.

Only tip I have for any arrow removal is to use a twisting motion while pulling.

If you beveled the rear of the footings, you should be ok. If not, they may take a little more force to remove. Lube is always a good idea.

A little harder, maybe.  Too hard?  No.

Try some Reel Magic, just spray it on.

Check out the Rockwood stump shoot coming up April 19th, lots of fun and you'll meet a lot of people from the upstate NY area, you'll find it under the Trad Events & Gatherings.

Richard,

Go the 3D shoots,  If I am there, I will pull your arrows, mine are the same way but I will be following some advice from above on my next arrows.

Its always nice to have a young guy around for the pullin   ;)
Relax,

You'll live longer!
