may have dodged a bullet as it were....

pulled the arrow I had knocked last night...the knock stayed on bow...hhmmm I had filed all knocks after last years misshap....now I check my arrows after any shots on deer...and had checked this one after the failed shot on doe and even replaced blades..every thing sounded and looked good...I replaced knock with a illuminock which are tight any ways...and there it was...a crack down the shaft...that arrow is now holding up a house plant....All I need is a shaft disinigrating on me...

 

so check and dbl. check your arrows after shots...I don't know why I didn't hear it when I tapped it for vibrations and it just wasn't noticable until the illuminock was pushed in...

Next time you buy arrows, Grow, try the Full Metal Jackets. tough as nails.

I twist my arrows every now and then, youll hear them crunch if they are cracked or close to it.

Thanks...I did tap it an usually that will give a ..hhmmm.....vibration type sound  if there is a problem..I'm surprised I didn't see the crack I check at the nock all the time...

Fortunate catch. I checked mine after the shots, but I'll have to check them again after seeing this.
