That's what happens when you get kinky with those things in bed.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

No, but you need to make that bed.  Or get a good woman to do it for you like I did.    ;)

No.  Did that happen on release or impact?  Eric.

Awww, just wrap a little duct tape on. It'll be fine!

Haha...And the one thing you'll never hear a redneck say is...duct tape won't fix that.

I was out rabbit hunting and just wondered how it would stand up to a concrete block. It was a 5/16 ramin shaft with a snuffer... it didnt hurt the snuffer much at all.

The Snuffer is tough but also the shaft is not that bad.

I had that happen to arrows a couple of times, all of them were cedar.  I even fixed one and the arrows shot/worked fine.  However, instead of duct tape, as recommended previously, I used tite bond II and wrapped it in three places with sinew.  I have fixed several other arrows with smaller cracks that shot/worked fine after being glued and wrapped with sinew, even used them to kill deer.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

I'd hang that arrow on the wall someplace, anyplace. Getting the cinder block up there would be too much work.  :rolleyes:

For the risk, I don't think I would bother with fixing a ramin shaft. Like Mike said, stick it on the wall as a conversation piece.
