Post by: Lone Ranger on September 01, 2011, 10:59:00 PM
Finally I can show off my first set of wooden ones-
not great but not half bad either.

Are you kidding me?  Those are very nice!  If they shoot as good as they look your going to be spending more time dragging and cutting than hunting & Shooting!

Have fun this season!

Nice work Rob...you've got the bug, and it's kinda like Lay's potato chips.

Great looking arrows.  I can't wait until I can try to make a set of arrows myself.

thanks for all the kind words~ they do fly great, these are the first time I "tuned" arrows to the bow and what a HUGE difference it is. I cant believe I was shooting those aluminum cheapies before! The shafts are 55-60 Surewoods and aren't quite as straight as aluminum or carbon, but its a natural element and the deviation at least to me is minimal. I'll try and post a pic of my "shop" I build custom fishing rods so I have a lot of equipment others dont have the luxury of having.

again thanks for the kind words-

Post by: Lone Ranger on September 02, 2011, 11:52:00 PM
they are named "one" "two" "three" "four" and so on........    :D

my wife says she wants a turkey for the oven this year so I find myself struggling with the idea of shooting one of those silly birds on opening morning.  (as opposed to potentially sitting ALL day in hopes of some venison.)   decisions decisions.....
