Custom Arrows.........
« on: August 24, 2008, 08:42:00 PM »
OK, I think I have the bow taken care of......... now lets talk custom arrows. I want arrows my way. I know sounds ridiculous  :)  Sorry....... I am tired of looking at my boring aluminum arrows and you can't shoot aluminum out of a long bow (grin). Thanks,  Craig

Something a little nicer than 3 plastic vanes on a orange aluminum shaft   :)  Maybe some nice barred feathers with a little cresting on the arrow.

Try Rod Kelley(Mountaintop Traditional Arrows)
(406) 756-5885. Rod is currently making up a dozen Douglas Fir "customs" and has made Port Orford Cedars& Carbons for me. Rod's arrows are reasonably priced & beautifully made in any combination of fletching, dips, cresting etc..you desire.

Check BadgerArrow and Sipsey River. Service is first-rate at either; both have gone out of their way to help me get great arrows. You will be impressed.

And Paul At Badger probably qualifies as an artist with arrows.

You can always make them yourself.  It's great to shoot your own handiwork.

Elite Arrows. I have always shot wood and his are by far the best I have used. A lot of bang for your buck and he is extremely knowledgeable if you need some questions answered.

Craig, It's easy, fun and the satisfaction that you get from shooting an animal with your own crafted arrows is unbelievable. I have made 20 or so dozen over the years and would not consider buying from someone else unless time was a factor. Give it a try, you won't be sorry.

Craig, feel free to contact me with questions or I can PM my ph#.  TJ Conrad's book, "The Traditional Bowhunter's Handbook" is a great reference.
