Flight shoot dates for the salt flats

Thanks

avcase:
We dropped the fletching size requirements because it added complexity to the rules, was inconsistent between bow types, and often required that an archer refletch their regular hunting arrows just so they could compete. In other words, the fletching size rules didn’t make a better competition so it was dropped. Besides, fletching size is self regulating because too small, and the arrow Flight suffers. Too big, and there is excessive drag on the arrow.  Just like regular hunting arrows, each Broadhead Flight setup is up to the archer to optimize for performance.

Anyone here yet? I am at KOA campground. Will check the flats to see if anyone is out there yet.  Arvin

avcase:
They should be arriving soon!

I had car trouble yesterday and needed a tow back home, so I won’t be there until Thursday morning. :(

See you soon!

I expect I'll learn a lot from you all on sunday. Maybe next year if I have the time I'll try the regular flight shoot too.

Question on primitive finishes. Right now my bows are treated with bear grease. I would think shellac, linseed, and tung oil would also be allowed?
