Anybody actually tried something like that in their wayward youth?

LOL My ole man did something like that with a shortish barrelled 20 ga. He used an arrow shaft with a small tennis ball-ish dog ball on the end and a bit of tape wrapped around the base end as a wad to hold the shaft against the inside of the shot cup. It seriously retrained a neighborhood dog that was always getting into his garbage.
depending on the type, should roll up around the shaft just fine & open on exiting the muzzle. ???

Probably not... OTOH it probably wouldn't be "illegal" during gun season and could make the .410 just a scosh more effective on deer sized game than a 1/5 oz "slug"...

On the TV show "Son OF Guns" the folks at Redjacket worked up some "arrow loads" in the .410 this past season. they got them to shoot pretty well as I rember.Yes it sure can be done. .

I'm sorry It's a little early to land in my groove.
You choke me up.
If I had full control I'd modify your post and open a whole new thread to mock you.
(I'm really dissapointed in the pattern of discussion my thread has taken... apparantly it takes a broad head to pull the target and point it this far a field...)

Take a bow. Clearly, you are a straight arrow, and you pull weight around here. Soon, you'll draw a crowd.
I quiver with excitement anticipating your potential.

Actually I have heard of it being done. I'm not sure I see the point ( no pun) in it though given the quality of today's compound bows. I would think a modern compound bow or even a modern crossbow would be more effective because of the ease with which these items can be aimed.

When you pass, I hope you will allow the medical community to dissect your brain so that we can finally discern the location of the pun center. Clearly they can just look for the unusual mass radiating white light and an angelic sound amongst the regular grey matter.

Don't mind Blaine...it will only compound things. Left to himself he just bolts for a rest whenever we get a riser out of him.
We prod him every once in a while, but he just stocks away before the quarrel begins.
I guess it gives him release... wheel see if he cam keep up this time...

I'm running out of ideas, so cable me with one, and I'll see what I cam up with.

Judo, to be blunt, the ideas just fluflu out your ears...
Maybe if you would stick to the facts, you could composite a whole new string of puns without drawing a sweat...

We used to do it when I was a kid. With a 410 you have to trim off the fleching, but with a 12 gauge you can leave them on. We used to shoot old junk cars or in our youth and stupidity, shoot them at an angle totally out of sight.

Did they fly true JB?
N.
They normally weren't that accurate as I remember. There was too much room for the shaft to be leaning in towards one side. I'd say a person could put some sort of spacer on the shaft to hold it closer to the center of the bore and improve things a bit though.

This post just keeps recurving to the silly. Wood it hurt to just laminate some of the puns, or maybe they just won't stand solo, cam they? Perhaps it is just that the ideas for puns only open on impact. It does show that we have a lot of razor sharp folks here.
On the real side, couldn't you mount something like a whisker biscuit on the end to help keep the arrow shaft straight?

You are correct....a feather in your hat, and you win.
Let's just call it macaroni... and Piller was just getting started too...
I'm not sure a whisker biscuit would work. 1st, attaching it would be a pain and 2nd the shot cup would tear the heck out of it.
