Nice set of arrows Pat. I like those reinforced nocks. The contrast looks great.

Thanks everyone. I wish they were not quite as heavy as they are but they shoot fine. They shoot well out of my 56# selfbow too.
Rick, the reinforced self nocks are easy to do. Just remember the grain. When you cut in for the spline you want to cut with the grain and your nock goes across the grain and the spline. Use flat grain splines(wood) to reinforce and not vertical grain like I did. On the last set I made I used rawhide splines and they work out great. No grain to worry about. Bone, horn or antler will work too.
Phil, Jamie Leffler sent these to me about 4 years ago after a got a doweling tool. Allegheny Arrow Woods used to carry ash.

Good work Pat, looks like you are arrowed up for a while. It is nice to have a new set and not to have to shoot odds and ends and what ever you have lying about.
