            No arrow without inserts? I’ve never heard of that before. Either way, if I’m in town I’ll try to make it up there. I haven’t shot at Kenosha since the North-South Shootout back in ’93 or ’94. It was a heck of a nice club from what I recall.

              I’m wondering too…what does arrows without inserts mean. Is that a government style statement that means no wood arrows?gfa

                I went to their website and the flyer for this shoot says “no arrows with outserts.” Does that make more sense? I guess I don’t know what an outsert is 🙂 but I hope it clears up the questions.

                  Robin,

                  Back 20 or so years ago, carbon arrows were pultruded (all the fibers ran front to back). Since they weren’t strong enough for actual inserts, they used what was called outserts — kind of like a long, tapered and threaded cap that went over the end of the shaft. If they weren’t glued on just right, they had a habit of getting left in 3D targets.

                      Never would have thunk the tips on my woodies be outserts. UMMM….They stay in targets sometimes too!

                      Y’all have a good shoot.
