Honestly hope I don't do it again. I'm just glad it wasn't one of my obsidian points although I think it may have survived they are surprisingly strong

Congrats! I on the other hand think that's AWESOME and the 2 arrows locked together would be displayed over my archery bow holder. I too once split a nice self-nocked/footed arrow I made and that's just one of the 'Robin Hoods' in my collection, less the other arrow escaped damage free.

Once witnessed a double 'Robin Hood' during an indoor Winter league, amazing it was!

Knoll:
Such occasions, while rare, do make for some neat photo opps.
Even using thread as nock reinforcement has saved my arrows.
I'm with Paul on this one . . . it's MUCH cooler when the robin hooded arra is a buddy's.   >:D

But to my way of thinking, that was purely an ‘accident’ ...

Whereas if I am aiming at a spot and shoot multiple arrows and score the Robin Hood, then yes there was still an element of ‘luck’ involved, but the setup for the opportunity was due to skill!

Pat B:
If you can Robin Hood 2 or 3 times in a row, meaning to do so, it's probably not luck. Most times is is just a coincidence...and it can be expensive.
