Hunting Arrows
« on: September 20, 2010, 05:44:00 PM »
These are my new hunting arrows I just made. I used real turkey feathers and died one pink, with koolaid. This is my 4th attemped at making arrow. Overall very pleased with the way they came out.

Very nice.  I use similar feather colors, but use red rit dye.  I hope you get the chance to see what a pass through does to your feathers.

One of the reason's why I kept the natural colors on the feathers is so that the feathers would show the blood better.   :bigsmyl:

Those will be easy to find! Good hunting, and post the "after" pics.   :readit:

Nice.  You should be able to track their flight with those nocks very easily.
