Title: St Judes arrows for benny
Post by: snakewood3 on June 29, 2009, 05:41:00 PM
Benny was the high bidder and specified he wanted a couple "different" display arrows. One is Western Diamondback with Alibates flint. The other is a Northern Copperhead with a Osage foreshaft and Banded Obsidian.

Superb craftsmanship seems to be the norm for Chuck's work. I love the coral snake motif on the foreshaft of the obsidian-pointed arrow. Benny was a wise bidder, and the kids came out winners thanks to the efforts of the both o' ye!
Thanks for the much-needed smile!

Thanks for the compliments everyone. The feathers are Guinea fowl and free ranging Royal Palm turkey. The turkey feathers bear a bit of a resemblance to immature Golden Eagle.

Such incredible talent combined with such a giving heart for st. judes...WOW.

Ditton on what Tim said. Enter something. Not for your own glory, if you're shy...but to help others feel that sense of awe looking at how one man can make something so utilitarian become a bona-fide work of art!

Just...WOW!  :notworthy:    :cool:
