Well thank you Tom and Art.  Noting like taking a dirty old run down feather and making it alive again.  I still look for ways to improve on my set up, and the best improvement so far was to move it to a heated shed where I can sit down.  Man it feels good on a day like today.  And Art, I have nothing on your fletching either, I might just do a few more than you thats all....lol.  Thanks guys.

Great looking arrow there Tom.  You did everything justice.  I am sure the kids will be honored to receive those.
