C'mon guys!  I know there has to be lots of you with individual arrows laying around that need to have their pictures taken!

Heck, I don't see why you couldn't post an atlatl dart or two....maybe some blowgun darts?

Hmmmm....I didn't notice the "quivers" until you said that, Pat.  What are they?  Looks like coils of bark?

well i wouldnt call this my best arrow...  but its one that i built over the week-end to send to a friend that i'm sending a few green privot shoots for him to try out....   i wanted to send him an arrow soo that he could see that it would work to make arrow out of privot i'm sure this is not a great arrow...  but i am found of it and i thought it would be worth sending and even posting... hope ya'l like it...    its from privot shoot i collested in my local woods here in dallas about 3-4 weeks ago...  and i put a "wanna be"  stone point on it...  i dont know how to knap sooo dot laugh but its just a flake that i tried to pressure flake close enought to call it a point...lol...  i made a self knock on it but used all modern tools... and i used modern glue for the tip and wraped it in nylon strands that i un twisted from a twist nylon string from the fishing department from walmart if you untwist the string it turns into many fibers of nylon that almost looks like hair...  i than coated the fiber wrap with some superglue to help hold it all togather...  soooo i guess this is a neoprim...  but i thoought it came out ok...

Mine are way too ugly to put up against any of these.But here we go any ways.
These are some from a few month back. Mostly primitive all hafting is sinew or cordage, some liberties have been taken with the decoration( shapies). All turkey feathers, some modern points.
Will post new ones as I make them

Nugget...they look good to me. ;D  What's the shaft material?  Are those stump shooters in the last picture?

Nice, clear pics.

They are a mix of cane and meadow sweet shoot shafts. The ones in the last picture are multi purpose. I use them for stumpin , targets and critter getters.
Thanks
