I have always had problems with my arrows breaking (usually just behind the pile) - usually if it hits something hard or there is a side wind but sometimes for no obvious reason
not having any other longbow archers in my target club I don't know how normal this is ?
The club I shoot at uses a rugby field so leaving bits of arrow behind is not an option but finding a missing pile can be pretty much impossible :-(
I was just wondering if other people have this problem / what the best way of stopping it is
I guess footing the arrows would help? but I think this is beyond my skill/patience levels but is there any easier way of doing it (e.g. special tool?)
or is there something can be wrapped around the wood to hold it together when the arrow snaps etc. ?
or failing that anyone know a supplier of very long piles (which would be easier to find)
