Title: Special arrow
Post by: Pat B on April 12, 2017, 01:41:36 pm
I've had this honeysuckle strangled stick laying around for a while and the other day I decided to make a display arrow special for someone at the Classic...

That is a cool arrow. I kinda like the strange or out of the normal. I have made a couple different ones. I have one I made from a beaver chewed salmon berry shoot. Nice wall hanger you made, thanks for sharing. Ed

Very cool.  That Browning point is very fitting for the shaft.

I didn't try this one Clint. It is probably very weak spine. The spiraled area is actually pretty thin and flexible.
Aaron, I've had that old Browning "serpentine" point for a while in a collection of other arrow heads and when I decided to make the arrow I knew that point had to go on it.
Ed, I'm with you on the strange and out of the normal. Heck, I resemble that remark.  ;)

You needed a RH twist broadhead to match the shaft.  That's going to mess your flight up Pat  ;D

I've been looking for a shaft like that at Cade's since I found my little Honey Hole.

Thanks guys. I thought it was pretty cool too. Eddie, if there is honeysuckle there should be some of these although I've seen walking stick size more than smaller.

Pretty cool twist to that shaft, Pat. Somebody will have a very nice conversation piece.
