flight bow and arrows
« on: November 23, 2025, 01:38:37 am »
Lately I have been attempting to make double barrel  Turkish style arrows to do some flight shooting with some of my fastest bows through a chrony. I made 5 arrows, and non of them flew perfectly, but with a 36lb fire hardened hickory bow with a 285 gr arrow my  grandson shot one special arrow that flew the straightest  200 yards, or more. I need a new battery for my rangefinder. That was special. This is the first attempt at flight shooting with my own bow,and arrows, or any bow. To make an excellent bow from wood is one thing, but making a perfect shooting  Turkish flight arrow is something else. It was a fun day, and I will keep honing my skills to try , and make a more perfect flight arrow.

Today I got my rangefinder working again ,and went back to were we shot flight arrows yesterday.  Our best arrow shot 180 yds. Not very good at stepping off distance. Back to the drawing board.
