Marius, The arrows I'm working on(without the fletching) is 31 1/2" from the tip of the stone point to the back end of the arrow.  Justin is doing the fletching and nocks I believe.    Pat

Dang Skeater - those tips and overlays are looking sharp!! I'm getting inspired here.

The tips came out great Skeaterbait. I love antler tip overlays when they still have the outside of the antler left on the top like those. I always make them too thick and end up fileing them down until there is nothing left but white antler.

Good looking tips! I do like them better since you narrowed them. I agree with Shannon that leaving some of the outside of the antler on was a good touch. ;)

Thanks guys, I was hoping the antler was the right choice. I'll be sending it on very soon.

I've got the 3 Southerner's shafts with stone heads(Cowboy's) and 4 extra shafts packed up and ready to go to Justin to finish, so Justin when ever you're ready I'll ship them.    Pat

Marius, sorry Ive been sleeping on the job.  I would like 6 inches for nocks and fletchings.  So about 25 1/2 from the tip of the arrow to the start of the fletching.
Pat, I'm ready whenever you are.  Ship away.  ;D  Justin

Shannon, I forget...were you putting sturgeon skins on it? I'm sure you'll do a great job whatever your contribution. ;)
