Who shoots wood arrows? I'm want to make my own woodies this year to hunt with instead of buying pre-made carbons. I would love to see pics of everybody's wood arrows.

It is all we use. These are my elk, hog, 3d arrows-this batch is Doug Fir. Victory if you feel like making the trip to Los Gatos I'll be glad to help get you set up.

I didn’t make this I’m not that talented. Snag made the first ones and Ray put this up on the St Jude auction on the next pictures.

Wolfshead, really like those orange arrows! Is that a stain and if it is what did you use?

Call Surewood Steve...these tapered Doug Fir are some of the finest shafts I've seen. Consistent in weight and straightness.

I have been shooting some woods through my Hill bow for a few months. Now I'm in the process of getting supplies to make them sexy.... NOTHING is as quiet or flies like good wood arrows imho. I think I'm becoming a wood guy for life !

Surewood shafts that I put a 10 inch nock taper on and used turkey feathers I ground:
and another set of all white nock tapered DF:
Hill styles, wood arrows, and back quivers all go together!

I made a dozen douglas fir with natural turkey fletching stained a solid color with no cresting...mounted 190 Ribteks on them and they are going to be my hunting arrows this year. About to make another dozen flu-flus using 4" full height fletching on ash shafts...but the shafts became crooked while I was staining and sealing so need to straighten before I fletch them up and mount mix of small game heads and old broadheads. not taken pictures of these yet.
