Six Stingers
« on: March 15, 2018, 05:49:27 pm »
I haven't posted any arrows in a while, and with my rotator cuff issue, pulling bows back lately hasn't been much fun.  So I make some arras.
The two on the left are honeysuckle shafts gifted to me by Guy at last Marshall.  The two in the middle are hill cane shafts gifted to me by PatB at last Classic.  The two on the right are just some of my old Kentucky river cane. 
Crested with a little snake skin wrap with silk thread trim
Wild turkey fletch dyed with Kool Aid
Nocks reinforced with sinew
Seed bead nock indicators
Maribu feathers as primitive aluma nocks
ScottS stone points hafted with sinew.
Field points Duplex nails with thread wrap and epoxy coating.

Thanks for looking

Thanks Aaron....
Pat,
I was hesitant at first with the nodes being closer together than what I'm use to, but after working with a couple of dozen, they are the smallest diameter for the spine and are heaviest per inch than any other shaft I've worked.  They are also a little more brittle than my rive cane but I think that helps in paradox recovery.  I wish my shoulder would get better I would shoot a bunch more of them. 
Thanks again, See ya at the Classic.

Amazing work Bill.  I could pick your arrows out of a crowd with ease.

Good to see your latest, sir! Truly impressive in the sense of bringing all those artistic/functional elements together.
Congrats!
Look forward to seeing you in TN.

Real nice!  I think you set the bar real high for quality arrows!  Take care of that shoulder!  Get it checked out  If it isn't better in a few weeks, you may need p.t. Or surgery!  Try pulling a much lighter bow for a while.  Some of the pt exercises can be tailored to the type of activity you like.
