virtual archery

[JBiorn]

I have friends who love to shoot virtual archery, and I just love to go kick their butts with my little recurve. I have a new bow coming really soon(I posted already about it in the "lost my training wheels" thread), now I want to shoot wooden arrows at the sport. Does anyone know where I could find some of those virtual archery blunts that are glue-on for some of my cedar shafts? I would just truly love to be able to give them some competition still with wooden arrows! It just drives the wheel-shooters crazy.

I dont know whether they Make Glue Ons,but I DO know they make Screw in Adaptors that DO Glue On! Check out "Lost Nation Archery" and Larry will take care of ya!!

Got a link?

If you can't find glue on adaptors why couldn't you cut some old aluminum arrows and glue it up front of your wood arrows. Just remember to use a lighter point than you would normaly.

Adaptors would be better probaly

3rivers has some glue on adapters, they glue on and then you screw in a tip)

Snail---nice idea. I guess, though, that I will be dealing with adaptors. Dammit, I wanted to see true glue-ons.

"virtual archery blunts"

I don't know what this is for sure but Three Rivers Archery sells the big rubber blunts for wood arrows.

i know that the place i go to shoot the virtual archery range wont allow wood arrows in their range.  So i just made up some old aluminums that i use for that place specifically for that.  Its cool i can understand why wood might concern them and cause a need to protect their investment in the screen.

[JBiorn]

Dustin, you have a point. I guess I may have to stick to my Easton Legacy's

darkegreene, Virtual archery blunts are the metal ones, they are round-faced, kinda like a bearing sawed in half.

Can someone please tell me what virtual archery is? Very confused!

[LV2HUNT]

I think they are talking about "Techno Hunt" or the "Dart System" which are archery hunting simulations. You shoot a blunt at the movie type screen and it marks where you hit it and provides a score. Do a google search for archery interactive to see the Techno Hunt system.

[JBiorn]

Thats it!

Fella's I got a package of 5 glue on blunts for the dart system from Kustom King Archery about a month ago. I use them in the technohunt @ Uncle Bob's here in Dillon. I showed them to the owner & he compared them to the screw in blunts they have & except that the Kustom King blunts are brass & glue on points you can hardly tell the difference. I think the price for 5 was $11.95 plus shipping. Lots of people really look at my arrows most are compound shooters with plain black carbons. My cedars weigh 570gr with the brass blunts. The blunts are 125gr. Hope this info helps. Frank
