Re: Built a tool

I don't used hold overs, these arrows are for shots in the 10- 20 yards range. Specific...

Re: Built a tool

Not in my experience, just need to be careful with them. Have never wore one out, you do need to allow a little for the ribbon's expansion when it's hot. The shape of the ribbon (think a C with vertical ends) keeps it stiffer when hot. Only thing that happens to the ribbons them getting bent, very h...

Re: Built a tool

Interesting. I never thought of that . It's probably been over 15 years since I spliced a feather, but they add so much more to a set of arrows. Which? :) Went to hardware store this morning before I got back to work on these arrows, needed an upgrade for the Young Feather Burner. Have never unders...

You've probably seen the Bounty Hunter videos on youtube where Derric Herring strips and peels the quill skin for his splices.. I gave it a try...
