insert trouble
i was out shooting today and when i pulled my arrow out, the insert and tip stayed in the target. I cant get to a bowshop for at least two weeks so i want to know if I could simply superglue the insert back in or if i have to wait and take it to the shop.

RE: insert trouble
24-hour epoxy is way better than superglue.
Last time I did inserts in carbons I used Gorilla Glue, just to see if it'd work. The inserts are still stuck good, not even a hint of a single one wanting to back out, and it's been nearly 2 months now.

RE: insert trouble
I use hot glue, which is not as strong, but I like the option of taking the insert out and being able to cut the arrow or try a new insert if my broadheads don't spin well in the original. Most other options are permanent and don't allow for changes.
