Been there done that.........but I got the fish! I carry a hatchet to kill turtles and chop the arrow out of any wood it sticks in.
A fish billy to club the fish is a must when fishing from a boat, nothing sucks more than slipping up on a fish and getting ready to draw when the fish in the boat start flopping and makeing a racket.

I ordered the replacement biscuit for bowfishing arrows from Keystone...have to take it to work, and cut out the QS slot on the bandsaw..after that I think that I can make up a target out of foam pillows to practice on.

You have a pond right?
Just tie a 2 liter soda bottle to a rock and sink it is 2' of water.......it'll be a very accurate way to test it out!........just tie a rope to it to retrieve it when you are done.

I don't mind blowing through a fish, I have not found it that hard to shove the arrow back through the fish and I know it won't pull out then Personally, I don't like to do that with a gar that is thrashing around. Been raked too many times by their teeth while trying to back an arrow out, not to mention their hide can be hard on string when you do that.

we don't have gar. we only have carp so i never thought about that. I usually stick my pointer finger in it's gill and thumb in it's mouth, pull it out of the water and hit it in the back of the head a few times with a club.

Gar are some crazy fish I did a little shooting at them and also did some shooting at the skates off the catwalks in Vero Beach Florida. Now that I don't live there anymore I wish I had done alot more of it when I had the chance.
