Busting Zwickey's!!
« on: September 04, 2016, 09:56:00 AM »
This morning while shooting from my deck here at home with my Martin Scorpion. These shot was about 28 yards off a elevated deck.

I have to say that anyone who shoots more than 1 broadhead at the same target is sort of asking for it. Shaved fletching would be the minimum I would expect. Nice shooting, though.

Bladepeek X2. If not, shoot at different spots on whatever target you're using. That is excellent shooting as others have said, though.

If you shoot like that all the time, ol' Robin Hood may have reason to worry about his reputation.

Good shooting!

I only shoot one at a time. Not because I'm good, but because "accidents" like that happen from time to time.
