Looks good Chris. I'm going to be trying stone points this fall as well. I like the feather arrow tracers as well.

Now was that ABO crazy glue, Pearly? :laugh:

Hahahahaha! I used pitch but couldnt come up with a good way to seal the sinew binding. I wiped glue on with an osage sliver. This is ALL new to me. If you guys see something goofy please tell me now.

Dan-O I totally stole that idea from Greg in Elm Hall! They are just domestic duck down.

Ive only made 3 all primitive stone tipped arrows but i quickly learned that superglue aint the thing to use on ANY wrap.. It makes the thread, silk, or sinew brittle in my experiance. I use abit of TB3 on my finger and wipe it around my wraps(ok, not so primitive). I aint shot a deer with them yet but it holds up really well shootin thru a bag target and i had zero issues huntin inda rain... I used pigeon fluff for my little tracer feathers. Looked awesome... Till i shot em a few times, lol... Next time I'll use duck or goose  ;) .... Brian

Nice work, Pearlie. How do they spin. I spin arrows on the tip of my finder and can feel the slightest wobble. Even a crooked arrow can spin true and thus fly true.

I did the spin test on all of them before the pitch set right up. Worked great. These 3 have all been shot at least a few times into a styrofoam block to prove the flight. Call me crazy? But I swear they feel a touch sharper now?

If the heads loosen for some reason all you have to do is heat the point a bit and the glue will
re-adhere.

Great looking set there Pearl.  Were you a little spooked to shot them into the styrofoam?  Can't wait to see the other half :)

That's a good looking set of arrows.  They look like they will get the job done.  Good luck this year.  I took my first deer with a stone point last year and I swear that little doe meant more to me than any big buck I have ever killed.  It hooks you up with your ancestors.  You'll see what I mean....  :)
