Title: Wilderness Custom Arrows at the World's
Post by: snag on October 18, 2013, 11:30:00 AM
I was told my arrows would be shot at the World's in Sardina, Italy this year. Just received these pictures.

The traditional category is being represented by Brock. The arrows I made for him are Surewood Shafts douglas fir arrows!
Good shooting Brock!

It's been fun working Brock. I do the "Wilderness" taper on his shafts. I take a 11/32" shaft and do a 4" front taper down to 5/16" and a 10" back taper down to 5/16". He says he has never had an arrow fly so well. Hope he does well. I was surprised to hear that the USA doesn't have a team...?

Well it's all up to Brock, now.  He's got the BEST arrows out there.

I shoot your arrow Snag.  I'm sure Brock will do just fine.  It is about time I ordered a dozen.

Kind of amazing to me to see my friends at Surewood Shafts taking Oregon high elevation douglas fir from bolts to shafts. Then I take them from there and make them into custom arrows...and they are in Italy! Kind of cool.
Thanks guys for the kind words.
