      Reuse until broken or lost. I always flex it if I hear a crack I bear down on it until it snaps so I won’t ever use it again. I then save the nock and get my brass inserts out of it. $25-30 an arrow. I don’t want to waste them I get all the money out of them I can.

        As long as you flex it good and inspect it for cracks your good.. I usually shoot a new arrow at most animals but I shoot the used ones at targets and pigs..

          I not only will use it, I will make it my go to arrow until it is lost or broken.

            Same here. My record so far is 7WT, 1 MD, 2 elk and 2 hogs with the same arrow.

            My current prospect is up to 8 kills[emoji6]

              Use them until they break or have visible structural damage.

                If I shoot an animal it goes to my arrow bone yard.

                  Yes. The most animals I killed with one arrow was 6.

                    Bad juju... those arrows get put out to pasture and become field point only arrows. I’ve never had an arrow pass a spin test after blowing through an animal to where it would shoot straight with a broadhead

                      Arrow reuse, broad head toss.

                          Wow that’s surprising. What arrows are you using? I shoot lots and lots of hogs with some fairly inexpensive arrows and they are usually just fine.

                              I shot about 6 hogs with the same arrow (CE Pile Driver). Resharpened the Simmons Landshark head and kept going. Finally stuck a big boar and he when he took off it snapped in two. Lucky is lucky!

                                I'm in the clean, sharpen, top of the batting order camp. Arrow in number one spot right now has killed 7.
