I saw that with just about 3 days to go at $700 I guess it went up a bit more.

I saw a "Nels Grumley" arrow on that auction site, which was supposedly an authentic arrow, but it had an apostrophe between the "l" and "s" (Nel's)...I wondered why Nels would have made his own name possessive???!?

I have one of Roy Case's arrows with a small game chisel-point on it...it came from his son Caleb many years ago...a friend of mine thought "I MIGHT like it"

Heck, bowdoc, I've been findin' your old arrows all over the woods, stuck in trees, and various small furry carcasses!  I've been selling them on **** for $1.95 buy-it-now! No wonder they've been selling so well! But, with all these guys so interested, I may just start selling parts of your old arrows! Say, would you autograph a few hundred nocks for me?


(ok, I was stretching the truth a bit about the carcasses.  But, I do need these nocks authenticated......)

When Fred Bear and Nells Grumley hunted Blaney park in the UP of mich they were required to write their names on their arrows, a friend of mine bought one of the propties there some years ago and found one of Freds arrows tucked in a space, very cool, Fred had the "F" of his first name turned backwards, very rare, offered himm $100, did not take it though, think I will offer him a bit more.
