Default Accidently gravel teasted the talon

While trying so shoot a pesky armadillo I somehow missed. It was pretty dark is my excuse. Anyway I shot into a gravel driveway at about 15 yards and all I seen was a spark. I figured everything would be junk but the next day I found my arrow and one of the tips on the talon was I mean barely even dulled. You could feel a slight difference with your finger. Just letting everyone know that the Talon passed the gravel driveway test with flying colors.

Ha! Sounds like fun. I've never even seen an armadillo live. If you can find a way to hurt a Talon, let me know...

rocket - that's funny, too bad you missed. The Talons are crazy tough.

Bummer on the miss but that Talon will take every thing you throw at it. I have shot it through a 3" diameter tree when I was shooting at a bird with it.

I remember you posting up about that, that was the day that 100% convinced me to order some. I have shot some metal buckets that we get axle grease in here at work. I think the talon literally laughed at me on the way to the bucket, and said this is all you got?

The talons are like superman. They can take on anything and keep on truckin. Cinder blocks are my favorite to blow up.
