Stone tipped arrows II
« on: July 12, 2008, 01:17:19 am »
i guess i was inspired by my own article to make another set of cane arrows.  this set is made from sasa bamboo, antler nocks, sitka spruce foreshafts, and obsidian points.  taking this set on a hog hunt in a couple weeks. enjoy!

pat, i've all but given up trying to make decent stone points.  these were made by david bond of colorado.  i made these about 100 grains lighter to pick up a little more speed.  i missed a hog low last time because my bow had be strung all day and lost some cast.  hopefully these arrows will make up the difference.

Those are great looking arrows Chris, those points look just super deadly. Your arrows are always works of art!

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

Nice Sticks man.  What Article? 

I also have to ask, what is the long fibers on the one fletch for?  Is that how you designate the cock feather?
