Was shooting the new to me Black Feather today and Axis 500s were a little weak in a couple of ways.

There are better ways to cut a carbon shaft...but this way is definitely the most fun.

Dave, I find an abrasive wheel works better, see the huge splinter you got going there now? Good shooting bud.

It can get expensive JL. New target and the arrow drooped forward on me. Knew it was going to happen as soon as I released.
