Naturals--Surewood tapered shafts

[snag]

I received a request to build some of these as part of a trade. I love making them just because they are fun and kind of unique. They are tail tapered down to 5/16" which exposes the natural wood gradually. Just another option, from many, when ordering custom arrows from me.

Those are SWEET !!
How long is the taper and from what to 5/16..???

They look very nice, David.    

I have two dozen of those shafts waiting on me to get after them.  I had talked with Nate about doing the same treatment to mine, several months ago.  I like the idea.  I might possibly foot them if I can ever find some time    

[DannyBows]

David your work is incredible. Those are stunning arrows. Well Done!    

[Tajue17]

how come you didn't show off mine,,, you must have somethign against duckys ha ha ha...

nice clean arrows right there,, they'd look sweet in a quiver next to an original 50's recurve..

[wv lungbuster]

Awesome!! well done

[Shedrock]

Good looking work David!

I have to tell you guys that I have had David do his master work on many arrows for me, and he does a tremendous good job.

Those are sweet. Great looking arrows. I can't wait to get my longbow so I can order some Surewood shaft arrows.

[Ric O'Shay]

Very nice work David. Classy traditional look. Anyone would be proud to own these.

[BrownA5]

Very nice arrows.  I really appreciate the workmanship!

[snag]

Thanks guys. It is a pleasure to build arrows...can't get enough of it! haha These are 11/32" with a 10" tail taper down to 5/16". I have found barrel tapering to my liking also. I took some old ACME's that were 23/64". I put a front taper down to 11/32" and then a tail taper down to 5/16". I found that if you tune these to your draw length and bow you can get arrow flight as good as any shaft material.

I agree barrel tapered shafts fly the best especially out of heavy bows at least for me, I didn't know you were doing your
Own taper work, excellent. Se ya

[Mike Vines]

We need to have a like button on here.  Great job.  I have always liked how you did that with the stain.

[wooddamon1]

I haven't seen any arrows from you that weren't beautiful...

Great work snag!
