Wish I could join these ranks,but the truth is,With every kill on large game,I always get a broken arrow.I do get multiple kills per arrow on small game though. God Bless

I got interested in primitive archery AFTER hunting season this year. Hopefully next season I'll have more exciting stories. The few arrows I've made have been cane and dowel rods. I twanged the string on my sleeve sending the arrow wide hitting the metal of the boat trailer that was supporting my target. The deer antler "bunny button" shattered but the cane shaft was fine. I halfed it with a small metal bird point. I ended up shooting it into a root. The sinew broke loose, but the shaft is still good. I love cane. It just feels better when you shoot it. Based entirely on my limited shooting experience. haha

oh yeah last summer i missed a groundhog and hit a huge steel or iron pipe and my ash arrow didnt break and then i missed a squirrel and stuck it in an oak and the arrow remaind alive... i lost that arrow shootin at a rabbit, i lose em more than break usually.

I've only begun to get weined off of cedar shafts for the last year, but I have an old Bear 2 blade that I've used every year(since '86) that has passed through a lot of whitetail vitals. I just mount it to a new shaft and sharpen appropriately. I had a couple of good years where I used it two and three times in a season. Here's a pic of the latest harvest with that point.
