Special arrow

I've had this honeysuckle strangled stick laying around for a while and the other day I decided to make a display arrow special for someone at the Classic...

That is a cool arrow. I kinda like the strange or out of the normal. I have made a couple different ones. I have one I made from a beaver chewed salmon berry shoot. Nice wall hanger you made, thanks for sharing. Ed

Very cool.  That Browning point is very fitting for the shaft.

I didn't try this one Clint. It is probably very weak spine. The spiraled area is actually pretty thin and flexible.
Aaron, I've had that old Browning "serpentine" point for a while in a collection of other arrow heads and when I decided to make the arrow I knew that point had to go on it.
Ed, I'm with you on the strange and out of the normal. Heck, I resemble that remark.  ;)

What a stunning looker, Mr Pat!

You needed a RH twist broadhead to match the shaft.  That's going to mess your flight up Pat  ;D

I've been looking for a shaft like that at Cade's since I found my little Honey Hole.

Thanks guys. I thought it was pretty cool too. Eddie, if there is honeysuckle there should be some of these although I've seen walking stick size more than smaller.
