What are you all using in the backyard? Who has separate 3D/fun arrows that is not built for hunting?
I'm switching to a 30lbs recurve for spring/summer practice in the yard, hoping to get a lot better for the Baltimore Traditional Classic in May so I don't embarrass myself on the courses. Also starting to shape my own arrows thanks to some of the advices I got from here. Shooting off the shelf. Probably going to be around 15-20 yards mostly but I might take a few shot 30-40 yards just for fun. Since its not a hunting arrow, only using 100 grains up front and I'm not concern about how it flies with broadheads. Going to be honest, esthetically pleasing arrow does help the enjoyment. Not a fan of how 2 fletch look even if some of the guys here rave about them. I'm leaning toward 4 fletch because I like how they look. After cutting a few prototypes, I think I'm gonna go with 4 2.5" straight in pink on top of white wrapping. I was going to go with a 3 fletch 4" shield but they just didn't seem to look nice when I picture them in my head.
From top to bottom is a stock Gateway 5" parabolic, 4" shield, 3.5" old English traditional, 2.5" straight.
Anyway, show off some of your arrows guys! I would like to see what you are all using.
