Title: Hand Planed Matched Pair
Post by: Lombard on March 07, 2010, 04:31:49 pm

Made a pair of 815 grain hand planed oak arrows. Self nocks, tied on four inch left wing fletching. I only had the four inch feathers, but they will not be used for broadheads, so they fly ok. When they hit the target, you hear a thump, and they really get in there; shot out of my fifty pound self bow. The orange dye makes them stand out against the background well enough.

Thanks Hillbilly, and Riarcher. Just simple hard hitting arrows. I need them for 3D shoots, because when everyone else is hitting those nice targets, I am hitting trees, rocks, and such ;)

Nice arrows, makes you hit the target better when you know how much time and effort go into those arrows.    Kenneth
