What do you recommend for arrows for all the bows that you give away?

Mike,
    Get some 1/4" birch dowels from woodcrafter's supply (Mike McCredy from Mad Dog turned me onto to these!)... You get 100 "shafts" for less than 20 bucks.   Eighty + percent of mine are usable!   Get a little chopper, full length feathers, and 1/4" fieldpoints (specifically for 1/4" dowels) from 3 Rivers and your set!   I dyed the kids arrows with RIT dye and alcohol before sealing, capping, and cresting.

The reason I'm asking, is because I got a sweet deal on alot of the old target arrows you used to be able to buy at the hardware store, and want to know if he would like to give a couple of them away with each of the bows.  They spine out at 25# and are 28" long.  Both of my boys shoot them out of their 18# and 24# bow, and I even have shot them out of the 51# Hill bow I sold you Ken. They are all fully dipped, fletched, have nocks and crimped on points.  They are ready to go, they just need to be coupled with some very nice kids bows.  I'll gladly give him 4 dozen to give away too.

Those are about the specs of what we include with the bows. best thing to do would be to send them to Maddog and he would put them in with the giveaway bows. Would save some time on building arrows for a few giveaways. Thanks for the offer too!

You're a good man and a great asset to tradgang Grapes. I applaud you for stepping up to add something special to help out Vermonster13 and Mike(Maddog Archery) with what they already do.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

God bless, Mudd

I'm just passing on a good deal that I came across (doing anything else with them just wouldn't feel right) and it helps get the next generation of trad hunters get ready to begin their new adventures.  

Because without them, we don't have an us.

Can someone please PM me Maddog's address where I can send these to.
