Made up my arrows for my Alberta Moose hunt this fall today.
(http://i887.photobucket.com/albums/ac73/mikeyancey/albertamoosearrows.jpg)
800+ grains hickory. I tested three with Abowyer Brown Bear Heads heads and they fly great out of three different bows. The one with the judo point I went stump shooting this evening and it will shoot through four feet of green grass before it stops.

Nice arrows. They look both handsome and deadly. Good luck in Alberta.
Looks to be some great medicine there. What did you use for the red stain?
Lookin Good!! Those should get the job done Mike!!
David
Good luck Mike... Warren
The red is the Master Arrowsmith dye that I sell. I have used this set up on wood for years
Mike,Where abouts will you be hunting.I'll be by Grande Praire from about sept.13th to the 30th.
My son lives there we'll be hunting Elk and Moose ,one spot we ATV in about 25 miles,fantastic country.
Mike
you are going to have a great time and I am speaking from experience. you know what I mean!
Good luck Mike! They are a tad bigger than antelope :)
Good luck. Those arrows look great! where did you get the hickory from?
The real deal here Mike! I can see every shot beforehand when I make up my special arrows for a trip. These are beauts! Best of luck!
Nice arrows! Good luck with 'em!
Very nice........
Lookin good Mike,we want stories when you get back!!
I hope you can stick one of those in a moose this year! Good luck to you!
Very nice, can't wait to hear the Bullwinkle story!
Wish you the best,on pins and needles here waiting for the Maine lotto draw for moose tags.Kill a BIGUN and post pics.
Beautiful arrows and you're going moose hunting. Life is good. Good luck on the trip.
Thyose arrows look to be a good medicine for any critter around,what's your bow poundage?
60 Lb bows and I will be hunting with Alberta Wilderness Guide Service
Mike ! With those arrows (nice) and 60#bow ,meat on the table for sure! Good Hunting. Maxx
Mike, those are beauties...after your turkey hunts the kill zones on the moose will look enormous.
Are those 4 inch feathers?
If you need help packing him out, just let me know.
Lyle
Lyle, the picture makes them look short but they are 5'' turkey feathers cut in the shield cut. Glad you got the jacket.
Mike
Hope you have a great hunt! My wife and I just booked with AWGS for 2013 so I will be anxious to hear how you do. The only thing that will make your arrows prettier will be turnin them blood red
Mike
Good Luck on your moose hunt,the arrows look great.It would be fitting for those arrows to find a moose.
Abe
Really nice looking arrow work there Mike. I've always been partial to 'red on my arrows' if you follow...
I think you'll love moose hunting. Nothing in this world can quite compare to a large bull coming in for a challenge...antlers rocking and fight in his eye. I guarantee your finest bow and loaded quiver will feel very insignificant!

Again...nice, nice arrow work Mike.
Thanks Kevin, good to hear from you again and thanks for the link to your moose hunt. I spoke with Browning about you guys at the UBM Banquet in Feb.
Hope we can all get together again and do another hunt sometime.
Mike
Great story Kevin,loved every detail.
Hope Mike has an adventure to match.
I was entertained by my bush pilot friend on the weekend.Him his wife and one year old came over for a visit. We talked moose hunting and looked over maps with lakes which have not been hunted or at least not much.Now with your tales Kevin and Mike's adventure coming you've started an itch. It may need scratching. Abe
Mike...would more than love to stir the coals and get a group of guys together for a good hunt. Don't believe what Monty told you...especially if it had my name on it!
Abe...scratch it hard my friend! After seeing your elk from 2011, I think you could be on a big roll. Keep on rolling.
Good luck they are sweet.
Those will make a moose tremble.
Good luck Mike, I assume you're going with the Widow Boys. I hunted with Dave Bzawy on his moose hunt twice, you won't find a better outfitter. Dave, Dean, and Ty are great to hunt with and a blast to boot.
Thats the group Im hunting with, should be a trip.
Mike
