Default Rinehart RinoBlock XL and pulling arrows

Tried 3 different field points on my carbon arrows. Each requires an knee braced against target to extract arrows.

Other than lubing them up with vaseline, are there points that are easier to pull out.

LOL

Let me guess...Maxima Red/Blue or a CPX arrow? Certain finishes stick more than others.

Easton Hexx 400's carbon. That would make sense, with its flat matt finish.
Maybe if I Turtle Wax the front end.

Smile Target arrow removal

Try giving the arrow shaft a rub down with a bar of soap. Not wet, not sticky, just works !

Scorpion venom arrow lube might help? It's available at cabelas for about $12.00! Or as stated above, ivory soap works well too!

Just remember lube may help the arrow to come out but it also helps it to go in.

I found my rine hart had to dry out in the yard for about a year. After that arrows pulled out like butter no matter what. I shoot Easton Axis and Easton FMJ but I've also put Beman and Easton Flatline in. Horrible the first year but best target I own now.The best target day one was "The Block" I've also punched out bulldog, morell yellow jacket , Mackenzie and some cheaper no names.

THE VERDICT IS IN........12 feet .....Hexx 400 Carbon....100gr point
Yes I was in my basement..............

#1 - Plain carbon, no finish - Took two hands to grab shaft plus knee to brace target block.

#2 - 1 coat Turtle Wax Paste - Much easier.

#3 - Miguires Gold - 2 coats - Even better.

#4 - Auto Glym Super Resin Polish - 2 coats - Couldnt tell if there was a difference between it and Miguires.

Not sure how many shots these applications will last for. Next week will compare Johnsons Floor Paste Wax with Bees Wax.

lol...watch for wax build up on rest...

Armour-all would work better than the waxes Im sure...and no build up an issue with any wax..


The Scorpion is cheap and works awesome...*whistle* lol

Still interested to see what you discover
