Is it just me or do others have a lot of arrows from either past projects or flat out mistakes lying around their house?  I looked and can almost open a store already.

Nope, you're not alone. I've got about 45 years worth of them stashed here and there. I keep a batch of aluminum arrows that have been bent and straightened just for armadillos.

hahahaha! Have you been looking in my window?!! As I have experimented and refined my arrowbuilding skills it seems I have compiled a mass of arrows! Just keep coming up with new ides and designs...

Sounds like we could start an arrow swap amongst everyone...

I think an arrow swap is a great idea.  I have at least 15 dozen.  I am putting together a list and planning to post them on here to get them to people who will use them.  Snag nailed it on the head.  I spent a lot of time and money finding the right arrows.  Now that I am there, I need to get rid of a bunch of them.

Saving them for footings on carbons is one suggestion.  
Another suggestion is to allow me to save your 2117's and 2317's for footings for my carbons.  :biglaugh:

I have given dozens over the years to kids at our local shop. Since switching to AD's, I have only broken one. My next set-up may require more arrows though.
