Some New Hunting Arrows
« on: December 24, 2007, 07:13:28 pm »
Here are some bows I've been working on as of late. Home doweled 3/8" hickory shafts, 5 1/2" red sheild feathers from 3Rivers (I'm outta natural feathers), hand feltched with artificial sinew. The thread was dabbed in Elmers white glue, and then waterproofed with pitch. I sanded the shafts with sandstone, then waterproofed them with the first rub of deer fat. The broadheads are 2 12" long by 1 1/4", made from an old circular saw blade, then riveted into the shaft with a dab of epoxy. Three .30-30 casing blunts and six broadheads. Most consitent arrows I've ever had at one time ;D.

     They look like killers, Kegan. I like the trade points.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.

Thanks guys :). This is the first time I've had more than two consistent arrows at a time :D.
