Title: Home made arrows
Post by: Stone Knife on May 04, 2008, 07:55:00 PM
Here are a couple pics of my two homemade arrows, I have more arrows on the way. Fir shafts  that I made  myself also one turkey feather and two goose feathers, I ground these and chopped them myself these are my first real home grown arrows.

Shakes, they are around 11/32 when I first ran them through the cutter they come out near 3/8 then I chuck them up in a drill to sand them down smooth. I made them from douglas fir that I salvaged from a burn pile the piece was the side of an old door. Most of them spine out at 57-60 my bow is 46@ 28" they are a little heavy at 575gr but they hit hard.
