posted these the other week but i'm planning to shoot these out of my osage static recurve this fall.  these are hill cane spined at 65# and with the woodsman heads they weigh in between 622 - 654gr.  not really looking forward to putting an edge on a dozen woodsman heads.

I use custom patriotic wraps and 1 white, 2 fl yellow fletchings and yellow nocks on my 3D/practice Carbon CX Heritage 90s. However, for my hunters/BHs I keep them (the same arrows) quite plain. I use natural wild turkey fletchings (all 3) and a small 1/4" band of reflective tape (for tracing and spotting). So there isn't much flash to them unless you like understated - LOL

Thanks!  I'm glad you like them.

I made them in the medieval manner so I could take them to an annual Ren faire next month. Port Orford Cedar, 50-52# spine.  This was my first attempt at self-nocks.  I used scraps of fiberglass lamination material for the nock reinforcement.

The cresting is automotive lacquer (touch up paints) in black & gold. The pattern is just a piece of sea sponge dabbed in the gold and lightly dabbed in random patterns over the black.  Gasket Lacquer finish.  What you can't see in the photo is that I used three different shades of brown leather dye to go from dark brown at the point to a light brown at the crest.  Fiebing's alcohol based leather dye.

The fletches were cut with a Lil' Chopper, RH Traditional, then carefully trimmed to equal lengths and tapered at the ends with a dremmel tool to accept the wraps.  Fletch tape held them in place while I wrapped them with a heavy thread.  Clear nail polish over the wraps.

The reason I said IF they shoot out of my Strunk 50# BBY is that I can't shoot a bow right now. I just recently had major abdominal surgery and can't string up a bow for a couple more weeks.  I'm sure anxious to see how they fly!

Beauties - all, guys. Mine are probably the plainest I've ever used but decided to try that this year just for kicks.

Wishes for QUICK HEALING, Weasel!

These are my first arrows done with a crester.
I stole an idea from Grey Taylor, and I really like the results. They are Gold Tip 3555s with a spray-can two-tone crown, and Testors cresting.
The marks near the nock and the top hen feathers are the shaft numbers. The one with three yellow feathers is for squirrels.
@!@#%^&!! squirrels.
