I bought some pre-stained hardwood shafts on here a while back. This is the result.
I was going for Retro yet somewhat visible.

Charlie,
Those arrows look great.....! ... you did a nice job on the retro look.
Thanks everyone.
Pat, Ron and Mitch thanks for the nock offers. I know speed nocks would look better but i want these for hunting and will take any advantage I can get to keep them on the string.
I want to add they all came out to 660 +/- 5 grains. They are spined to shoot from my 45 lbs bows. Hope thats heavy enough for deer ;) :p
Very nice. Thanks for sharing!

I hope they break every one before the end of the weekend. That means I can scrounge the place for more shafts and start over :bigsmyl:
HA! Careful what u wish for!
Less than 24hrs now!!
Love the retro look Charlie, they look great with that bow.
