Hill Cane Arrows
« on: August 15, 2010, 09:55:43 pm »
here's a set of hill cane arrows i just finished.  patb gave me a bundle of hill cane at the tenn. classic and this is what they turned into.  they are 32" long with apple foreshafts.  the foreshafts came from a small apple tree a buck rubbed a couple years ago.  the tree didn't survive but it did have two nice shoots coming off that i had hoped to make into arrows.  the shafts came out too light in spine so when i was looking for some foreshaft material i saw them and decided they would go to good use in this way.  hopefully get a little pay back for the buck who killed the tree.  i finished them out with a dozen woodsman broadheads i've been saving.  enjoy!

Chris, nice arrows from some very nice cane!  ;D  What weight did they come out. I'll be hunting with a set Art made from the same cane with woodsman on the business end. Mine are over 650gr.

thanks guys!  pat, these weigh in between 650-700gr. with these 125gr. woodsmans.  hill cane is very similar to sasa in weight and straightening characteristics.  sasa might be a little more forgiving in straightening than hill cane.

Very nice Chris! I finally got around to making myself a set of hill cane arrows after making them for everybody else. Only target arrows for right now though, going to have to get busy and broadhead them if'n I'm going to hunt with them this year. Keep up the good work. ART

 Nice arrows, Chris, I hope it doesn't take that many. I'll be up on the 15th. Art, I have some more and Jap arrowboo ;D ;) ;) That hill cane sure seems to be a little heavier than normal cane.
