Nice arrows!  Shafts do cure well in this region - it's dry in a heavy rainstorm >:D (lol)(arrow making emoji!). Looking good, Jeff!

Wow!  Those are gorgeous!!!  That is very nice work.  I agree with your wife though...those on the right are truely beautiful.  I wish I had the skills and patience to do this kind of work!  I would love to know where you got the fletching for those on the right.  how long are they?  What can you tell me?  I love making arrows, but I'm not a very good fletcher...and I'm reminded of this when I see yours.  Very nice work indeed.  Thanks for sharing.

The ones on the end are just wild turkey feathers--I get them either from friends who hunt, or I trade for them here.  The rest are from 3-rivers archery.  I always make my fletchings 4.5" long, because it means I can usually get two fletchings from one feather, because I'm cheap. Straightening takes the most time, but that is good for me.  It scratches my perfectionist itch.

Swampman:
That is a beautiful bunch of arrows Jeff.  Very nice work. 

mullet:
All of them look fantastic, Jeff. The ones you got from me are Florida cane arrows. Pretty hard to find good cane down here.
