You had to hit the arrow, you didn't have any target left to shoot at.
Looks like consistent shooting pattern to me.

Great shot!  I have shoot a fleched arrow with a bare shaft, and the other way around, but not two bare shafts in a row.

Robin Hoods are OK but when they're in the middle of the bull, they are GREAT!! I'd mount the arrows along with the picture.

I think the back-up bow would become my goto bow if it shoots like that. Very nice.

That pile of shot out targets is something I love to see.

A BOWHUNTER lives there!!!

Bowhunters MUST shoot their bows.

Fletch the back ends, sharpen the front ends, and go get some pork.  :thumbsup:    :archer2:

I'm with Bonebuster! The "Robin Hood" is cool but the targets all shot up tell me more about you than one ruined arrow ever could..lol

Condolences and Congratulations !!!!!!

God bless,Mudd

PS I am on the verge of having to replace my eternity target darn it. I love that thing for field tips. I have a block type target, an 18-in 1, plus 4 or 5 burlap bag(homemade) targets so how is it that at least two of all these needs replacing?
Go figure!

Holy Shiitake Mushrooms Batman!!!

Never seen that before!!
Like what was said before..

Robin hood--$20
Hitting the bull -- $0
Doing all the above with bare shafts and having a picture-- Priceless!!!
