| Robin Hood
The arrow that was split on "The Adventures of Robin Hood" (the one starring Errol Flynn) was done the old fashioned way- by shooting real arrows. The archer was one Howard Hill- apparently an above average archer ;-) It took a few days of shooting, but he finally got a split that pleased the director. And a few that didn't.
Marcus, you don't need tons of power to split an arrow- what's more important is good arrow flight.
The grain runout that is so prevalent in POC now shafts pretty much precludes a good Robin Hood, but I'd like to see what can be done with something like Scots Pine, self nocks and a decent broadhead. Care to send us some Ribteks? |
