Built my first woodies (round 2)
« on: January 17, 2013, 07:35:00 PM »
I am now 100% officially addicted to building and shooting wood arrows!

Thought I would build something a bit brighter and a bit old school for 3D. Poplar shafts and turkey nanners from Magnus.

No dip tube. I haven't bought much equipment yet. These started out with a grey stain/pickled white combo that went south. The white is spray paint and the blue is craft paint. Hand did some sharpie crests, wipe-on poly coated and done.

Mike its a great feeling! Can't wait to hunt with some.

Wait till you "misplace" one at the range.  You will look for hours before you move on, and still wonder where it could be...or so I have been told.    :biglaugh:

An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.
