Title: Crested Arrows
Post by: _Jon_ on December 15, 2011, 04:54:40 pm

I made a few arrows a couple of weeks ago.  Pappy shared some cedar shafts with me in exchange for making him a bakers dozen like we always do.  Most of these spine out at 40-45 lbs, perfect for my draw weight.  I’m trying to learn hw to crest arrows.  That’s a work in progress at the moment.
