    Finally got the Gold Tip UL pro's built and shooting. Got 150 up front with flex flex ffp 187 and beiter hunter pin nocks out back. The bow is hammering now that I got shafts spined correctly for my set up. Got a marked 3d coming up in a couple weeks, hoping to do pretty well as I have finally found a way to get practice in with the new baby around. The form looks and feels good but boy has my mental game has gone completely in the crapper.

    After work tomorrow I am going to go and trim 4 smaller trees and repair a bow hanger for a marked 3D shoot sponsored by one of the clubs I belong to this next weekend.

    If you show up to MN I will sponsor you as a guest!

    So not quite the Robin Hood trick but is this repairable ?

    I wouldn't shoot it. Damaged arrows can be quite hazardous to you and your bow.

    as far as a repair is concerned you can cut off the damage and insert a new and refletch, but not worth the effort in my opinion considering it will have different weight and dynamic spine than the rest of your arrows.

    Yes, but I wouldn't bother.

    No, it looks like a strange jig.
