[TowerTalk] Antennas in trees

Simply add a couple of nuts of appropriate size to the tip of the arrow. 
The extra weight will cause the arrow to drop to the ground and allow 
you to retrieve the fishing line. I do this whenever I need a wire in a 
tree. Have several arrows prepared for this. Works every time. Most bows 
will not notice the extra weight for this.

Good luck! 73
