They look good!
can you pull them on a 45# ?
Very Cool!! :thumbsup: Good Job!! :clapper:
i shoot them with a 45 through 58#.
Very nice looking arrows.
Looking good! Is that copperhead? I just did up a couple too, with skin from a rattler I killed in my front yard.
Now that is sweet, good job and great looking arrows. the only thing that would look better on them now is a little blood. :)
G0od job!!!! It's not hard at all. Now you can do some cresting on them. I have been making them for over 20 years. It's really easy.
Again Good Job!!!!!

Nice looking arrows
What are you using to attach the feathers over the snake skins or better yet explain your proceedure for making these great looking arrows!!
There's big Class in those arrows! Great! Bet refletching them might be a PITA. I could suffer through it. Beauts!
fletch tite, refletching???, just make more.
Nice arrows.
I used the fletchtape and just put a little duco on each end of the feather. And yes thats copperhead i think some breeds of the rattler would be to thick for an arrow you could use that to snake a bow. I have a glass bow I snaked that I thought would be really cool to shoot them with but a friend of mine's uncle Marty Breeden has givin me a few bows and that's all i'll hunt with now. I'll post a picture of the snaked bow here as well though.

Realy cool looking arrows great job.
Anyone shoot these with the bleeders?
Very nice work. Gives me more motivation to do something with the scraps left over from when I recently skinned my longbow. :)
There's a lot of craftmanship in those arrows . Good job .
