Title: Evolution of my wood arrows.... took a year....
Post by: Davesea on May 07, 2011, 11:59:00 PM
Just finished a bunch of wood arrows using a variety of woods (from left to right 4 each of Birch, Sitka Spruce and Doug Fir, notice the nock has a color code) using what will/may be my standard cap/crest/fletch/sealant/etc.  Until I get a different Idea or my preferences change....        (http://i1188.photobucket.com/albums/z412/Davesea1/woodies/1105_woodies.jpg)

Those are some nice looking arrows. I like how you changed the colors near the nocks to show which type of wood. Its a nice subtle touch.

I can barely make it out but it looks like there are black red, and green stripes near the nocks.

4 each.

Anyway, nice looking arrows!!

Nice arrows for sure.

Easy to see in flight.

It will be interesting to see which shaft becomes preferred, and which shaft proves the most durable.  :thumbsup:
