Just wondering how many folks tie directly onto the arrow instead of using safety slides or rings.

Slides for me.. tired tied to the back and just didn't like how hard it was to change a arrow out or how slow it took to nock up a arrow on the bow...
Have always shot slides. Have heard on here about them breaking but I don't shoot as often as some on here. Gonna try the rings next year.
use slides with retiver never tie to the backe wit a retriever cuz if it gets tangled the ams string is stretchy itll snap back at ya. fastflight will break tho
tied to the back many years ago but, i use the slides now. never had any problems either way tho....
Slides! People have gotten seriously hurt and killed tieing to the back. I used to tie to the back before slides came out, back when bowfishing meant treading around in knee deep water during the carp spawn. Had quite a few arrows come back and leave a nice mark on me.
I just shoot them without a line at all, looks like this when I'm done ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXj-ujpxkqY&NR=1
I use rings. I tried tieing to the back but just couldnt get used to it. Slides would break some time in cold weather and had some issues shooting in shallow water and pulling against the rubber stops. I have had good luck with rings. I use two rings some time when shooting real shallow water.
By the way its a small world the guy driving the boat in that video is Denty Crawford. He lived not far from my house in Slidell. He lived right on the Pearl. Had some awesome crawfish boils........fill a 16 foot flat boat full of crawfish. Had a pet pig named Rosie!!! lol
