As I mentioned before here I am getting a crossbow. I have learned a decocking bolt is advised so I ordered one. Simple enough question, can a decocking bolt be safely and effectively be fired into water? How deep would the water have to be? Would the shallow (2 1/2 foot) end of a pool be deep enough?

Honestly not sure about shooting into water. Bring a cheap field arrow and use a decocking target when you get home/back to the truck.

I use one of the cheapo bolts that came with the bow. I pulled the nock and filled it with #9 lead shot so it is really heavy.
I just shoot it into the ground. Doesn't go very deep. |
