bamboo arrows

First time making arrows. The arrows are bamboo with turkey feathers that I dyed and put some tracers on them.

I'm not sure what kind they are. I got them at the Tennessee classic couple years ago and forgot that I had them.

They look like Tonkin. Did you get them from Mullet or David Knight?

  I like the tracers a lot.  I've been meaning to do that as my eyes start to age.  My favorite red feather pattern doesn't show up as well any more for me when shooting in and out of the shade.  I often lose sight of the arrow in flight. 

A couple years ago that had me tentatively looking around for almost an hour for a bloodtrail, on an elk dead less than 60 yards away, because I wasn't sure right where I'd hit her.

Only thing I'm worried about is their durability and what happens when it rains.

Yep, those are Tonkin and some great looking arrows.
