I have to go along with JW, I like them all!

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Glad you like them Robert. I really like them too. I’m getting quite a collection.

I did seven of the bigger ones and six of the smaller ones now.

A guy just can’t have too many of these small guys.

Thanks Glis Glis. Everyone is different. I started out with a piece of cherry firewood that my now passed wood working uncle had saved. My cousin gave it to me.

I split it into kindling sized pieces. The splits follow the grain and make each one different and give them character.

I used an angle grinder with a floppy sanding disk to give them the crude shape and then use my hand tools to finish them.

A little char from my propane torch and then sanding with Emory cloth for the color.

Everything is natural. Wood, pitch glue and sinew.

Yep I keep coming back to check these out, I could see how making these would get addictive! I like the scorched wood, It's a really nice touch.
