Title: Wilderness arrows heading out the door.......
Post by: snag on January 22, 2013, 10:17:00 AM
I know I like to see what guys are making whether it is bows, arrows, quivers or whatever. Thought some might like to see these before I head to the post office.

I also want to thank those of you who have allowed me to be your arrowbuilder. It is a privilege that I don't take lightly.
Thank you, David

Beautiful arrows David!  Can you also make them in the Rick Welch style, where the feathers are mounted a certain distance down the shaft for those of us who like to use a nose anchor?

Dave, I recently made some arrows for a man who wanted the back of the fletching to be 2 1/8" from the valley of the nock....
  Wilderness "Custom" Arrows
      I will build them to your specs and desires.
              Thank you, David

Mike's probably in a fit seeing those arrows and having trouble typing. I'll bet he meant "prices".

And those ARE some fine works of functioning art.

:thumbsup:

You are correct Bud.  Fat thumbs and small phones are not a good mix.  I have corrected it.

Dave:

The dozen of breast tapers I picked up at the TAO are not only beautifull, but are also a perfect match for my Classic bow.  This is the first time I've shot any barrel tapered arrows and I'm sold on the way they fly.  They're shooting equal to any other shaft I've tested out of this model.  Thanks for such a great product, keep up the good work.  Only problem I have with them is they are almost too pretty to shoot.......well almost!

Beautiful, David!  Thanks for sharing.

Post by: snag on January 26, 2013, 12:29:00 PM
I agree Allen. The short front end taper and the longer back end taper makes for more weight forward and great aerodynamics. I'm glad you got them and are enjoying them.

I think I'll call these the "Wilderness taper"!

I really like the yellow ones with the brown feathers.

Dave those are gorgeous!!! When the wife will allow it, I'm gonna have to get a dozen "pretty sticks" to fling around!   :notworthy:   :clapper:

The Wilderness Taper, I like it.  It really does make a difference in the way they come out of the bow.  I couldn't stand it, I even had to build me a new Classic Longbow just to shoot these arrows out of, 53# @ 28" & 68", a perfect match.
Title: Re: Wilderness arrows heading out the door.......
Post by: snag on January 26, 2013, 08:07:00 PM
Now there's a switch! Build a bow to match the arrows! haha  I like it.
