Got my new Dryad Orion in the mail today, couldnt wait to try it out, on maybe around my 30th shot I split an arrow. It split the nock right in half all the way down about 8" on my ash shaft. That was a first for me. I think this bow is trying to tell me I better be using her this season.
She has a marblewood & Texas ebony riser with marblewood limbs and bamboo core, 58" & 53#@28".

I'd be using the arrow that split that one up front with a BH on it.  It's got some good MoJo to it.

Does the second arrow have to stay in the first arrow to be a robin hood?

Robin Hood or not.  That is some mighty fine shooting.  Sweet wood combo.  Is that grip lower than their standard grip?
