Thoughts and praises
« on: May 15, 2011, 12:21:00 PM »
These are my most recent batch of arrows. I am contemplating fletching shape and color.

My thought is:  2 turkey and one white!  I will use my feather burner to make most likely a pope and Young cut 5" or 5" custom shield cut.

Any other ideas on fletching?  This is my 4th attempt at making arrows. I have come a long way but still have been learning A LOT each time I build.

Pats on the back are welcome also   ;)  

   

   
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Fourth Attempt? They are looking great. Your fletching choice goes great with your cresting colors.

Nice work Charlie. They deserve nothing less than 3 natural turkey shields or naners.

Charlie - those look great and I'd go with the color combo you picked. They will look really classy.

I had to do 2 whites and 1 barred based on what I had "in stock"

 

I decided to use a traditional style cut.

   

Cant wait to test drive these puppies.
Relax,
