I got a package in the mail today that was totally unexpected. Rod Jenkins sent me 4 wonderfully made cane/bamboo self arrows. They are fletched with what looks to be wild turkey feathers, have self nocks and some of the coolest homemade field tips I've ever seen.
I'll try to get some pictures up of them as soon as possible.
Thank you Rod! If I need to send you anything for them please let me know.
God bless,Mudd
PS Somebody else know just how much I hate making arrows...lol
Very cool Mudd. Rod is one of the good guys even if he doesn't wear a white hat. haha
Man that is too cool! Congratulations and look forward to the pics. :thumbsup: :clapper:
Awesome!
Rod is a great guy!
:thumbsup:
I'm worrying that I made a trade or something for them and just not remembering it. I pray I'm not having a "Doh!" moment.
I would hate it if that were the case.
God bless,Mudd
I think Rod wants your hat Mudd.
Snag! THAT WAS FUNNY!
Lets see em Mudd
I took them out back and shot them out of an appropriate bow for them. It's one of my favorites that I don't get to shoot nearly enough but I can't help it. It's a Bamboo backed hickory 72" n-t-n and 55@28. I wish it didn't wear my shoulder out so quick but unfortunately that's not the case. In fact I think you're going to see a couple of my higher end favorites on the board soon. I want to shoot as long as I possibly can and if that means going down more in weight then so be it.

Looks like I'm not very observant either..lol they are fletched with two turkey and one goose.
God bless,Mudd
I think they are crooked, Mudd. Better send them on up to Iowa so I can properly dispose of them!
:biglaugh:
Great looking bow and arrows.
:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :clapper: :clapper:
:help:
Nobody deserves them more than you Mudd!
Real cool bow and arrows.
Very cool arrows :thumbsup:
Very nice Mr. Mudd! :)
Morning Bowferd! :knothead:
I hope we get a chance to meet one of these days too. :pray:
God bless,Mudd
PS I bet if you look hard and think about it you'll see it too...lol :rolleyes:
Mudd,
Those arrows and that bow are one righteous looking set. :thumbsup:
OK, OK. I'm going to go back and look.
:smileystooges:
If he just inserted epoxied nails into the hollow point, I'm going to feel like :banghead:
Ahh, :D :D
80 grains of metal with those screw in field points might give me better FOC. :goldtooth: :biglaugh: :laughing:
They are double headed nails with the top head ground off to a point. The entire nail is hot melt glued into the shaft.
Bowferd thanks for taking the chain yanking so good naturedly.
God bless,Mudd
Rastaman, your using the Mr. kind of loosely :laughing: . Mudd is a super person but, Mr.????
Nice looking arrows brother Mudd. I'm going to get me some cane and try them out.
