2017 ARROW SWAP - SHOW N' TELL
bjrogg:
Got my trade arrow from flungonin yesterday. I've been busy, getting home late and leaving early. Got just enough of a break this morning for a couple pictures.
Really like the arrow Steve. I'm guessing rivercane shaft? Nice sharp stone point, I like this material. You'll have to tell me what kinda stone this is I'd like to try it. Maybe Georgetown? Two feather fletch. I don't know what variety of bird it's from, but my wife sure likes it and so do I.
Thanks again flungonin I really do like it. Gotta run but here's some pictures.

Well guys those sure are some nice arrows!
I finally got my arrow opened from High Desert. Its a very nice arrow with goose fletching and what looks to me to be a glass knapped point. Thank you very much, it will go nicely with my PA arrow collection. Here is a few pics i took of it.
I should mention that it was lucky to be in one piece, the first pick will show the box damage.

Dakota Kid asked me to post the pictures of the arrow I sent him.
The arrow I made was just a solid hunting arrow just like the ones I made fore myself. It is made out of bamboo garden stakes from Lowes. Charokee two fletch with wild turkey tail feathers, self knock with a bamboo skewer inserted in before cutting the knock. (Thanks for the Idea Pearly!) The point is one of my first hand full of points, it's made out of milk glass. I inserted a piece of brass rod in the shaft behind the point to get the point weight up. If I remember right its about 135g with the rod and point together. This brought the arrow to right at 525g over all. I halfted it with pine pitch and back strap sinew with a little hide glue on the sinew. The shaft was smoked with a candle and burnished with beeswax. It show very well for me along with my other arrows i made for this hunting season.
Dakota if you would like to add your comments that would be cool!
Here is a few pics.

Patrick I can see pictures of arrow you made and sent to the kid. Nice work, good looking arrow.
All I see where you posted pictures from high desert is black screen with these pictures don't exist in large print.
