Title: Raptor archery = awesome arrows
Post by: Dmaxshawn on October 09, 2011, 08:57:00 AM
I have going back and forth for a while about getting some footed arrows.   I finally broke down and clicked the add to cart button on Ted's site.  Arrows came in yesterday after giving them the once over I walked out to the target and shot three of them.  I was in total amazement they were all touching @18 yards.   I bought the tapered eagles Sitka spruce with wenge footings.  If you want some hard hitters go look at raptor archery arrows for quality arrows.   Thanks Ted.

Shawn.

Ted builds a great arrow, I have some of his tapered Spruce Eagles and I love them!  I haven't found a better guy to deal with, he has always gone out of his way to help me with my questions about archery and it's history.  His shop/museum is a must see.

Time for me to throw my hat into the ring...Ted does make a fine arrow, only problem with them is that they are so indestructible that I can't get a new dozen every year! Really enjoy every conversation I have with Ted, especially the times we have talked history and Jay Massey. Well done Ted, keep up the great work.
