Anybody else ever intentionally done this while practicing with your bow? I've done it twice, and my brother has done it once.

I was shooting Carbon Express Weight-forward arrows from a Bear/Primos Truth 2 at 318 FPS at 40 yards.

Who's with me?

Let me clarify for those who don't know what a Robin Hood is.

A Robin Hood is when you shoot a second arrow directly into the first arrow, through the nock and into the shaft.

I have seen it done a couple of times. Never seen it done intentionally. As in shoot a shot, then call a robin hood and pull it off.

My brother did it accidentally with one of his better arrows, tried it again countless times with his shitty ones and couldn't do it

Not intentional, but I have done it once.

Ran and got the wife and kids so that they couldn't call BS when I bragged about it later.

We used to color our nocks black, so the comp couldn't zero in on eachothers nocks. I've shot in pro-ams and seen it several times in the big 3-D shoots. I've only seen one guy call it.

Used to do it with some regularity with aluminum arrows. However now with carbon I can't remember doing it.

I've never done it but I've come awfully close. Knocked alot of nocks out, shot through fletchings etc. Just never had the right angle I guess.

Did it once by accident. With the cost of arrows, hope it never happens again. The guy I shoot with trys to do it. Dumbass!

Hmmm. When I've done it, I was shooting at the same spot with all arrows. Not sure if that qualifies or not.
