Decided to fix what wasn't broken and put together a new arrow.
Beman ICS Bowhunter 400, full length, std 21 grain insert with a 200 grain VPA 3-blade up front. My calculations yield a 505 grain arrow with my custom wraps.
Turkey time is almost here!

You can see the good tears once I got the nock position dialed in. Gotta love a well-tuned set up!
Looks great!! Now put one into a turkey!!
A dark, and menacing look to them. They turned out very cool! Good luck during turkey season.
Take Care, Chase
Nice arrows. I also use the Beman ICS arrows. I love them.
I saw your arrows but dang got some bone all over the wall. Both look really good. Been thinking about those VPA 3 blades myself.
Stinks that the archery opener is on a Tuesday though. Good luck buddy.
Oh my and I'm off Thursday! :goldtooth:
Those arrows look good, but i hope that is not the holes they are tearing in the paper tuning pic!!! :scared: :scared: :scared:
OK, just read your second post, and went back and looked at the pic again. If the bullet holes are the final result, you done good! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Yes sir, Bisch. That's a bare shaft paper tune punching a bullet hole....not a fletched arrow. They're darts with wickedness on the front end!
I'm with Michael, off Friday through Tuesday! Headed for a weekend trip with Dad and a trad buddy to the land of longbeards!
Good luck Bronz, hope your new feathers can turn red this weekend!
Looking Good -- The turkeys are in trouble!!
Good luck guys! No blinds allowed. Give the turkey a chance.
Great looking arrows. Best of luck to you and your dad on the turkey hunt.
Looks like a good one, I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that! Good luck Sir!
