Great looking shafts.  Do you use wood glue on the skins or something else?

nice wraps.im sure that took some time and patience. i have some questions though. i have read that regular arrow wraps can effect spine in the arrow. how does the snake skin wrap effect arrow spine on wood shafts? when you fletch these how does your fletching glue effect the skins. i would like to know a little more before i try this myself

Thanks fellas...

As far as the spine thing....I have no idea...I've never shot one before. I suspect that it does increase spine a bit, anytime you add weight to the back it does.  How much?????

 I've made so many, but never shot one myself...

But, Tom Phillips might be able to help. He shot a bear with one I made for him last year.  These are for him as well...

Awesome...unbelieveably awesome. You, sir, are a true artist. Feathers from one of your turkey kills would be icing on the cake. I think that all arrows are meant to be shot, but I have just been proven wrong.
