Thank you all again.

LOL - you have a point there, Don but I think I'll save them from that particular "clash" - just in case ;^).

Here are extra pics of Guy's beautiful arrow work on my very special arrows, to better show off the visual impact of the two black fletches, a close-up of the shaft design/decoration, and a little sneek-peek of Your's Truly's pleasure at receiving the surprise gift:

Is the emblem a stamp or decal?

Another example of why I am proud to be part of the great fellowship that is Trad Gang!

Truly an excellent gift!

My deepest gratitude to you Bernie and to all those who have or still do serve our country in the military.

Have a great 4th of July everyone!

Toddster, I'm not positive but I believe it is a decal - under the finish - really looks good, and they are very uniform and excellently applied, in any case.

WOW!  That is just an INCREDIBLE thing, thanks for sharing it with us.

Thank you for your service to our country.  You DESERVE those and quite a bit more for what you have sacrificed.

Those are truly beautiful arrows.  NO WAY I could ever come close to making something that looked that good.  I am amazed that the level of talent of many members here.  The sad thing is, I don't have a BIT of it either.

Anyway, enjoy your arrows and may they all fly straight and true for you when it matters.  The only possible problem I see is that I don't know if I would even want to SHOOT one of those works of art.

Thanks all around for this one.

Toddster, they're decals. I have used stamps in the past in a different arrow application and the clarity and detail don't come close to the decal.

Those little emblems may (or may not) very well be the easiest part of your attention to detail, Guy but that added touch makes my heart smile. Hope you like the pics of your work.
