Benji/St judes
« on: August 13, 2009, 08:59:00 PM »
In this year's auction I won a set of 6 arrows for my son, from Benji. Adam, being the shooting nut he is lost or broke all but 1 through, Comptons, ATAR, Denton and various local shoots. Hi also went through 14 other arrows during that time.


So, after having met Benji at ATAR and spending time in camp and the courses, I figured who better to make Adam another set of arrows. I pmed him and asked him to make a dozen with blue and white fletching.


Benji uses Poplar shafts for the kid's arrows. They fly great from his bow and are durable. I asked that they be just simple arrows.

Here's what showed up.

Thank you Benji. You do beautiful work!!

I bought the 3 Cane arrows with stone points on St Judes auction that Benji offered. I was really impressed with his work. The arrows arrived, and I was very surprised to open the box and find 4 arrows instead of 3.

Benji and his arrows are first class.

Funny you should mention cane arrows, Billy.

When the St Judes arrows arrived, there were 2 cane arrows with field tips on them. They were never mentioned either. Just goes to show, he's a regular Trad Ganger  :bigsmyl:
