Why not just shoot at a different spot on the target?
I agree, also I learned the hard way many years ago to "SHOOT THE DANG BROADHEAD FIRST DUMMY!!!!" After tearing up an arrow that would have been safe had I shot the BH first!!! Now, I always shot a BH then a FP to see how close they are.

Another tip:

Never shoot an arrow (broadhead or field tip) straight up in the air and then stand their looking up to see if you can see it land.

When I practice with broadheads only shoot one. I shoot it over and over, then right before season I shoot all to make sure they are flying true to the other. Of course, like you learned hard way and either shoot one at a time, recover and shoot next or shoot at different spots on my block target. [8D]

Ummmmm exactly what I was thinking.
If you do the arrow retrieve, arrow retrive, it is more accurate practice for hunting. When you hunt, you loose one arrow at a time.
