RE: I shouldn' t listen to you!
I wonder if anyone has ever shafted a shafted shaft? Or double Robin Hood?

One of the locals around here has a few triples and many, many doubles to his credit. he used to work for PSE I think. Fletched up a lot of arrows for Easton catalogs too! He' s very knowledgable....VERY!

The guy in the picture is Norm Lewis. He' s been the Maryland state champ for a couple years now. He is the local weatherman on TV --a job he' s performed for quite some time.

Unless that guy has a nub, he' s holding up 3 fingers. Could just be a pic count number. I think the guy AE met accomplished something even more difficult. He shot his with fingers. Now that would be some great form. I never knew it was so common a occurence.

Here is the link that states it was a double robinhood.

Robinhoods can be avoided or accompished with the way the arrows are built.I build arrows to prevent it from happening.I always use unibushings and g-nocks and this makes it much harder to robinhood and reaaly protects the back end of carbons.I have taken several nocks completely off and had to pull what was left,out with a screw that was heated up.Many more nocks have been split down the middle.Those would have been for sure robinhoods if the uni wasn' t there.
If I didn' t do this,I would destroy a bunch of arrows.Just something for those that are concerned about cost of arrows.Easy to avoid at home but when shooting with others on a 3-d range,it isn' t up to you sometimes.
