two-fletch test
Dustybaer:
here's a set i made for a very special friends birthday. it's a weight and spine matched set of sitka spruce (there's actually eight of them), spined at 41-42# and final weight 360gr - 370gr, 29" long and tipped with 70gr. tophats. 4" hand dyed (didn't get the red to match the crest), handcut fletching, very little offset (basically the width of the selfnock), no helical. she shoots them from a 55#, recurved osage selfbow. (yes, she shoots heavier bows than me, shut up pat ;D)
she had shown me the family crest one day and from the moment i saw it, i knew i had to make a set of arrows to match the crest. so here you go: two fletch, medieval style.
by the way, the flight is awesome. perfectly straight trajectory out to about 35 yards. and they are FAST. didn't have an opportunity to shoot them thru a chronograph, but just seeing them fly was awessome. i think she liked them ;D

Those are really good looking arrows Marius! They look so good she may be afraid to use them for fear of breaking or losing one. ;)

Nice arrows Marius,David had some 2 fletch at the Cabin this passed weekend and I was impressed with the way they fly,His were a little noisy but we think it is because he use secondary feathers not primary.Not sure ,but they fly great. :) Need to give them a try,save on feathers. ;) :)
