WE see a LOT of really beautiful pics of wood arrows and they are amazing. Do many out there put the time in on their carbon arrows to produce the same beauty? I'm sure there have been pics before but let's see a few! Maybe comment on your favorite way to work with them.
Thanks....
I never could figure out how to post pic, but I put some work into my easton trad axis shafts.
Removed the label with acetone, crested them up to match my bow woods and put some poly over the crest.
They don't feel like wood but are very pretty for a carbon, using zwickey glue on on the broad head adapotors .
Sorry I cant do the picture thing either, but I have purchased a few dozen from Gary Hall (sponsor) Great looking arrows.
I need to take a picture of 3 different patterns.
Mine are "custom" because I do them myself, but they are nothing to show off. I take GT5575 black shafts, use acetone to remove the factory label, and glue on 2 white and 1 yellow feather...........and they are done.
I love looking at all the great work some of you arrow builders do, but just don't have the patience for it myself.

Ok, I am photo bucket challenged.
These are carbons I made up using custom wraps from One Stringer. I also use the cap dip and crest method on my friends arrows but no pics.
What's the deal, Patrick? No pix of your pink and black lasers? They worked pretty good out of my Timberghost. They don't look too shabby either!
I use a lot of wraps, but if I'm not too lazy still like to paint them up. These are Easton Axis .400s:

Not the best photo of the arrows, but these are my daily shooters, Easton ACC 3-60s:

Ha ha! I bought those here from Guru!!! Pretty much as received except for the tips!!! Worked pretty good out of that bow of yours!! I do have hopes of working on a few of my own!!
Here is a set I did for my brother They have the reflective wraps on them too they where pretty bright when you shined a flash light on them.

Last turkey season was cut short by my father's passing, so this year I reworked his Easton axis. They shoot great out of my whip, with pink being one of his favorite colors, they kind of came together this way. Now Dad's arrows will keep on hunting.

Here's some of the ones that i've done. The black one is painted and the rest of them are wraps.

Here you see mine, GT traditionals with my own cresting and Magnus Wild Turky feathers...

Nothing fancy, just plain fletching and cresting on these GT traditional blems. The white/red crested ones have been through the mill as 3-D arrows for several years. The feathers are soiled from hitting dirt so many times.
