My New Arrow Project

[bountyhunter]

I posted a while back some arrows I built for my daughter's wedding and I liked doing it so much that I decided to build a set I could use that are truely traditional. It has taken some time and a lot of cheap dowel rods to perfect my nocks, but I think I'm there and I've messed up a lot of feathers practicing my wraps. Well I finished my first three last night and I'm very proud of them. No glue (except for the points), no plastic and the fletching is wrapped with sinew. I had planned on using these for practice and hunting, but now I'm not sure I want to shoot them they are so pretty. What do you guys think?

Your attention to detail stands out. I have built a few of the rods that I fish with offshore....and I understand the time and patience that it takes on these types of projects. Very nice job.

Well I couldn't stand it and took them out Friday and shot them. I really have to pat myself on the back because these fly better than any arrows I've built or bought. Now if I can get bambi to play nice this fall, killing one with these arrows would be very speical!
