VIDEO out - HOMEMADE SMALL GAME ARROWS
« on: January 17, 2010, 07:58:00 AM »
VIDEO IS UP !!

Some members asked me about doing a video on "how to do it" ....

Here it is :    http://www.youtube.com/user/yononindo#p/u/6/M_Gm5Zf9G9g  

Enjoy it.


Beman MFX Classic 500, brass Insert, footed with 2018, 4 point Skipper Stopper and a drive-in nut.

Footing length is 1 and a half inch at the front and a half inch at the nock end.

Total arrow weight with three 6 and a half inch full size feathers is 685 gr. Length is 29

Over the years, been using them successfully on small game like squirrels, pheasants, rabbits …..

I do not shoot rabbits on the run, I go for head shots with this arrows - KILL or MISS !!!

They also work great for stump shooting.


I shoot them out of a custom made Black Douglas Ultra TD made by Border Archery in Scotland.

Amo: 58 - Hex 5 Limbs - 58 lb. on my fingers.
 

   
   
   
   
   

Enjoy your hunts!

I never heard of Skipper Stoppers, they look wicked!  The nut looks like a great idea, I'm going to try that.
Thanks, Mark.

I have the thoughts and ideas to make stuff, but not your skill, most of my stuff ends up in the trash....your heads are a work of art, great job!

I love the looks of that antler rest. Maybe a little build-along on how to do it?
The great bow twanged. The black arrow sped straight from the string, straight for the hollow
by the left breast where the foreleg was flung wide. In it smote and vanished, barb, shaft,
and feather, so fierce was its flight.~J.R.R. Tolkien-The Hobbit

Martin archery is the supplier. They come in 125 grain only. They are great stumping heads. Need more weight just add a washer behind it or the drive in nut. Knocks the snot out of small critters and are almost impossible to lose. The points can be touched p and made sharp again with a 3 corner file.
