Those look like they should work fine. What size shaft are you using?  How do they shoot?

They look pretty nice!  I like the white cresting.  Can you give us details on shaft material and tyep of feathers, binding, crest paint, etc.? 
Thanks for posting!

Thanks for your interest. Not sure how they fly yet, waiting on some 125gn.Tophat points from Germany.  I am using 3/8 maple shafts that i sand down to 11/32.  They are around 430gn each before points.

lol. The crest paint is my wifes nail polish. :)   The fletching was cut from some dollar store craft feathers (no idea what type, nice and stiff though). Artificial sinew wrap (artificial till fall harvest anyways!). I heat tempered the selfnocks before wrapping.

Very nice looking arrows. 

Did you say the wraps were artificial sinew?  In black?  Where did you get art sinew it in black, please tell.
