My hunting shafts are finally done.  I did 9 with all white full length feathers, and then I got creative with the 3 that wieghed the exact same, and did my first splice job and then burned all of them.  So I would have to say for my first complete full set done all by myself I did a good job.

I would like to hear what everyone else thinks.

very nice, i like the barred ones.
as soon as I took the clamp off of the first barred splice, I wished I had done it to all of them

Thats a heck of a lot better than my first. Great job on cresting and splicing haven't tried that yet. Still working on my cresting. In other words. Beautiful!

They look GOOD!

How do they shoot?  With broadheads?

I've always liked spliced fletch jobs but have never tried it.  Nice work!

I remember the first arrows I made up that were dipped and crested. I lost one under grass behind my target. I spent waaaay to long trying to find that arrow!

Very nice work!
