Thanks fellas! I tend to go all out when I make something. Sometimes it takes me a while but I normally get what I'm looking for when I'm finished. I need to learn that simple is just as good as fancy!

Mike,  I hope to get in some more practice before mojam. Hopefully I won't miss as much as I did  at OJAM!

Thanks DBar!
I got a set of arrows in trade at the classic last year that had dark pink marabou glued on behind the fletch. I really like them. I done a trade last year with someone that wanted white Rabbit fur for the same reason. So that's what I used on mine. I'll probably do that a lot to my arrows!

Thanks a bunch guys!
The kool-aid was kinda neat,  I'll be doing that again!
Yeah Paul,  I definitely need to practice a bunch more. There is a couple of 3D ranges near by that only cost a couple of bucks. I plan on hitting those some when I can.

Thanks John,  that means a lot coming from you!
I got another half dozen of shafts that I would probably do that for! >:D
Makes me appreciate a half dozen from a vendor for 50 bucks. And the 95 that a friend of mine charges for ones similar to mine.
