:lol: I kinda wondered about that at the time! Nothing like first hand experience though huh? The good news is, that stuff WORKS! :lol:
The element of surprise can never be replaced by persistence.

Kamn, I hope you get one this weekend too!
Dave, that's an idea I hadn't thought of! I know if I was making bows I'd like to see pics of what they were up to, thanks for that suggestion.
Dennis, thank you sir!

Thanks Clay! My arrow setup is gold tip 600's, 100 gr brass adapters, 190 gr meatheads, with 4" shield cut feathers. Oddly enough, the shafts are full length! They should be way weak but they fly pretty well.
