Can't blame me for thinking it was you Del, you have a certain humor that fits that arrow. (I appreciate it btw). ;D

That primitive arrow was part of a layout by Bob Miles  8).  Many (most?) of us who shoot primitive over here do so in the National Field Archery Society, and we (especially Bob) have become used to the general joshing that we get.  For some reason everyone thinks that we should be shooting arrows like that  ;D

There are a few more pics available at Sam Moss' blog, which if it's OK I will link from here (nothing commercial on it!):

It was a great weekend, and great job done by Wally.
