Re: use of aluminium and carbon arrows at trad shoots

Hey Little John, I could imagine that would leave a sour taste in your mouth. Personally i shoot woods out of choice and i shoot heavy hunting arrows whenever i'm at the club. I never shoot high scores and a Target archer I am not, but im confident that i can take an animal with a heavy wood arrow i...

Re: New String (with pics)

It is too.... bugger.
I will see that everytime i shoot now :sad:
All good, will make sure i look at the order more carefully the next string i do.
How would that affect the string? It wouldn't affect the breaking pressure of the string would it?

Cheers
