rare but painful

Too late, Pearlie. I already spliced a piece on the nock end. I'll post pics of the process after I'm done.

Pat B:
Well, the theory for the repair worked. I use a long bevel on each piece and used TBIII with rubber bands to hold it together over night and got good adhesion but my application was less than good. The alignment was off and I see no correction method worthwhile. One of those reparro arrow repair thingies would have worked fine.
 

M2A:
Well at least you have consistent shot placement :) It does hurt when they are self nocks tho. Hope you can get it shooting again. I did see a real fancy set one time that had a small footing of ebony on the nock end.

Thats a bummer Pat, and I agree with Whistling Badger, I fear being that consistent and accurate lol  (lol).

I had that happen once a few years ago when I was shooting 50-100 shots a day. It was cool, but also a bummer when I just spent the last week building a nice matching set of arrows. Mine split though, it was made of duglas fir. I started shooting different spots on the target for each arrow. I cant believe yours caught the arrow, I mean it stuck into the other arrow, CRAZY! (A)

Pat B:
It was the sinew wrap that caught the offending arrow.
 I usually try not to shoot at the same spot but I was shooting a new bow and just trying to get used to it. Oh well, stuff happens.  (SH)
