I only had a half dozen to hunt with this year.  I wish I could afford to have that many arrows.

I enjoy putting arrows together also.  I always wonder what the fate of each of them will be as I'm assembling them.  Little do we know, but there's a good chance a few of them are gonna fly to some damn good memories.

Hi All,

I've got four dozen shafts, 18 broadheads, and 30 fieldpoints (190 gr Ribteks and 190 gr fieldpoints), feathers, and nocks.  I've also got some purple heart and bloodwood that I've considered using for "footed nocks".  It's mid winter here (10* to -5*) and the plan is to have them done for spring thaw.    :D

Wow Denny, you've got your work cut out for you next fall!  Do you have enough freezers to handle the load or do you have to rent cold storage space?

jmc334, I think they are the same diameter as Beman ICS hunters.

Whip, We got freezers!  :)

Thanks everyone and may all our arrows fly true.

Fritz, Darryl is working hard on MBB3. I got to see some of it last week and I thought it really looked good. If everything gos OK it should be on the market this spring.

3 is different. In 1& 2 the masters told us how they do it. 3 shows us how WE can become world class shots no matter what aiming style is used. I actually put the info to use and have been training since last June with unbelievable results. This might be the best one yet for individuals to find the keys to a consistant shot sequence that will hold up in the most stressfull shot situations. We are excited about getting this one out there.

Thanks for your support and interest
  :)    :)

I'm spending time in the shop making arrows too. I've got some 70#-75# ACME shafts that are ready to fletch...waiting for more fletching to arrive. I'm starting on some CE Heritage 250s while I wait. That's a pretty sight to see those arrows lined up awaiting your orders.

Yep...I'm getting ready up here in ND!  I made up a new dozen arrows recently, but decided to buy some arrows as well.  I found some beauties that Badger had for sale and I've been tuning these gorgeous Gold Tips to my new 56" Kingwood Widow.  Now I just have to survive 'till Spring!  Oh, the wait....

Still tuning to find the correct arrow for the Border!
Construction a little slow  :)
