I was shooting just now. Heard the unmistakable flutter of a fletch that came loose in flight. It actually was embedded in the block.

Flimsy little blazer going fast enough to stick in the block!

That was with the Elite bow, I sent the Trijicon sight on the SWBXT in for repair so it's resting right now.

I have another MBG sight as a spare I put on the SWBXT for fun, but it's not really dialed in perfectly yet.

That photo would be a great one for an Ad to sell bows for Elite.

I say I cant wait till my new bow gets here. But Im dreading watching my old tired block target trying to stop 435 grains of pain at over 300fps. I see a Rinehart or HIPS in my future.

If all four arrows were shot from the same bow I'd say you have a soft (shot out) spot in your block.

I've got one of each of these and they've both been great.

It's a couple weeks old

My shooting is shared across a dozen targets on my 3D range.
