Bunny busting with a 10c coin??

Hi All, I was reading a story on Stalkbook about a cheap bunny buster, drilling a hole in a 10c coin and topping it off with a field point??.
Anyone tried it??

Magnetic arrow rest

I was finding that the stick on arrow rest was bending up the vanes on my carbon arrows so I bought one of those magnetic ones with a little arm only to have the arm snap after 10 min of shooting!...bugger!, just get me a longbow already....

Re: Off the shelf

It's a 35lb recurve but at my draw length it's probably closer to 40lb, the Eastons have 2" xpv vanes, I'm worried the vanes will end up shearing off on the shelf?

How long before copies of the bow start popping up on Ebay etc??, I think you can still buy "Hunger Games" bows on the Landcaster site ( going very cheap :biggrin: )

Re: Newbie Arrows?

Got some Araldite, the one with the two tubes to be mixed together, but I've been reading up that the best one is the 24hour epoxy?, didn't see the stuff at Bunnings though!
But I'm holding off on the glueing till I double check
