I got in front of a big flock of turkeys walking right up to me. Shot at 2 of them. 1st arrow hit the bird, 2nd arrow ricocheted into no mans land. The bird ran away with a limp, leaving some blood. I lost both arrows. Only arrow left has a different broadhead that flies different. Now I've gotta drop 40 bucks that I may or may not have, find a stump to shoot to make sure it's accurate, and hopefully get in the woods in time to hunt the evening.

Been there, done that same deal....TWICE! First one turkey flew away with my second to last arrow. Second time I hopped out of my tree stand right onto my arrows. I now know the sound of $60 bucks disappearing sounds like.

Pick up one of those diamond hook sharpners that are the size of a ball point pen. I keep one in my pack to touch up broadheads after I test shoot em into my block target.
