Those look really good. I agree with an earlier poster that I wouldn't have known you were new at it unless you told us.

I'm in process of making my own woodies for the first time, too. Got some poplars from Magnus here on the sponsors classifieds. I'll do a couple unstained for testers then try and figure out what two stains I want for hunting arrows.

Way better looking than my first ones many years ago.  Nice work.  :thumbsup:

Very nice indeed, especially for your first go at it. I crested my first wood arrow over 20 years ago and yours are way better than mine was.

Well done!
Shooting together at the 3-D range just got a bit more fun, I expect. Making arrows together would be a great next step. If that activity gets to be too much fun, I could see that a few deliberately lost arrows might be in the cards for future shoots.   ;)
