I also wonder if a squirrel is worth a potential lost arrow

I’d be making lots of arrows just so I wouldn’t have to have that little question in the back of my mind. Gotta be something around there for arrow shafts and blunts.

I would carry my best arrows with me in case I encountered a bear or large game.

I think shooting little squirrels and such. Through limbs high up in trees I’d try to use arrows I made on site. I’m pretty confident in my arrows. It’s really almost all I shoot.

Colorful flu flu fletching, judo points and ground shots only.

After all these season, I am wondering why we haven't seen anyone trying to make some arrows. Do you guys think it's the lack of resources?  Or just lack of need?

This has always been in the back of my mind to.

I understand that people would want to hunt with arrows they have tuned and tested before they  even went.

I also think that constantly worrying about losing arrows would make me question taking a shot. Even just a split second question like that when hunting for survival and the moment is past. I think a good supply of arrows made on site would favor more of a aggressive shooting opportunity. Especially with blunts where you might be less likely to mortally wound a small animal and loss it. Or maybe I’m wrong.

Right or wrong I think it would be part of my strategy

Just started watching this season the other night.  I really like watching for the ingenuity these people come up with.  I'm watching last season and this season at the same time since I missed last season somehow and unfortunately, I know Clay wins.    Saw his deer kill from last season, obviously the shot was recreated... Awesome kill, but no way you can get a profile vid of you shooting when you are still hunting...

I'm amazed at their sensitivity of the tree rats as well, makes no sense. 

Weird the guy who found the trap never even set it and now he's gone. 

Also wondering why the one woman (can't remember her name)is making the mansion into the side of the hill, that's chewing up a lot of calories and going to be a bugger to heat, it's gotta be pushing 200 square feet...  A lot of the other shelters do not look up to snuff for winter either.
