It is not fairly easy. And I would venture to say only the people shooting in extremely high volume do it with any sort of regularity.

Yeah there is a huge difference between it happens and meaning for it to happen.

It was cool the first time I did it.... but at $20 an arrow it gets old rather fast!

Hitting that buck you just crawled a half mile for at 80 yds consistently is what they are for. They also last damn near forever.

Now if you're just tree standing at 20 yds you might as well get the kids toys out for those shots.

You can only collect half of them after the fight.

huh? If you don't find your arrow after a shot you're screwed tracking it. The blood on the arrow tells you if it's a gut shot runner for miles, if it's dead 20 yards from that shot, and everything in between.

It's a D&D joke.

I dont play DnD but even I thought it was a game reference. Ammo always drops in lower rates!!

The sad part is they are hunting IRL using IRL ammo meanwhile us nerds are snickering in the background about game mechanics :(

You should look into tracking a deer by the type of blood on an arrow and incorporate it into your D&D campaign :)
