I've Been Busy Today
« on: April 09, 2013, 07:38:00 PM »
I was digging through my stuff that I had when I was shooting as a youngster and found some stuff I could use. I found some aluminum arrows that would work for footing and thought I would try my hand at it. I found some old broadheads I had also. How many of you remember these Rocky Mountain Razor heads?

I also tried my first four fletch arrows. Which way are these meant to shoot? Do you just twist the nock around and shoot where you get the best clearance?

Looks like you had fun
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Shoot them like the second pic.  That is 75/105.

I shot a few of those Rocky Mountains back in the day.  The blades were quite fragile.  Had several on the same head break off on deer ribs.  Much better stuff around now.

I agree Orion about the blades. I remember some I found that were even worse they were called Satelites,those blades were paper thin.
