They put a big smile on MY face! There will be some happy archers out there, makes me feel good just thinking about it. That is some fine work. No excuses, no apologies needed, just give them to the ones you love and be proud.

I'm not a leather expert but I do see one problem. None of 'em on my arm! LOL
  Great work and I'm sure the folks that received them are very happy.

Rusty,
Those are looking good, you going to give a chance to win one at the TBM banquet next month?
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.
