Nice work. I learned to use metallic colors to separate my colors to really make them jump. Would look great on yours too. What stain is that?

For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

Thanks for the tip, Kevin. I will definitely try metallics in the future.

Looks good to me!

I've shot with you though, and I know first hand that no matter the crest color/width/design, those arrows can find the 10 ring.

You've inspired me to give some wooden arrows a try this summer!

Hope all is well Sir!
