1st time fletching and look!
« on: January 23, 2011, 11:12:00 AM »
This was my first attempt, cresting is a wrap from one of our sponsors. Pretty pleased with how they turned out. They fly well too. Don't know if its the arrow design, or the feathers but these arrows are flying about 3" higher at 22 yds
I did mess one up, and am waiting on the mail man to bring me a different style of feather cut to see if i like them better prior to making anymore

When you look at the picture click the edit button then when it opens you can click re size and type in 640 in the box to the right then hit apply and then at the bottom replace original.There was a thread with direction to make it by default I will try to find it for you, but the above will get the pic up for you now.You have to do each pic.

If you find that they don't suit you I'm sure there is quite a few fellows on here that would gladly get rid of them for you! LOL  They look real good!

Click on the upload button. Look at bottom of box just below the social links.  You will see a link that says "Customize your upload options" all uploads will be resized based on your choice

640 X 480 or smaller is good for here

Great looking arrows.

Great job on those arrows, I don't think you'll have to worry about loosing them. Looking good. Don
