If that is your first try you did very well!  How do they shoot?

Great job, you can be justifiably proud to show those off. If they shoot as good as they look you got some real winners.....Dave  :clapper:

Mine are never that pretty because I'm too busy breaking them to take my time making them. Every batch is a rush job so I can get some more in the quiver before I break the last one.

Nice job!

I love the simple design hope to have a few similar of my own soon.

Nice job!!

What did they weigh, and how did they spine and what did you put on the business end. Very Nice Job.
