I just made up some 50-55 ash tapered arrows. I put a 160gr point on the front. I shot the arrow out of my 60# hybrid and it showed weak. I shot it a few times. Then i shot it out of my 52# long bow which has always shot 50-55s well. Well the second shot in i shot low on my target and it went through my 4" styrofoam backer and hit the pallet it rests on. Well when it was hitting it was vibrating the tail of the shaft alot. Well when it went low it snapped clean in the middle. I would think ash would be stronger than that. Is this a case of a bad arrow or maybe just bad luck? It vibrated right under my deer target and i think it may have slapped the under side of the deer, but i dont think it should break from that. Any help would be great. Thank you.
