Jesse's Arrow's
« on: March 23, 2009, 08:24:48 am »
Our buddy Jesse (Leapingbare) got home Saturday morning from Afghanistan. Sure was glad he made it home safely! I had made him some cane arrow's, six from local red river cane, and 7 from tonkin. He put points on four of them yesterday and gave them a try. They were flying like darts! He was really pleased, and so was I. They ought to be good for hunting this fall. Sorry, we didn't think to take any pictures... :)

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.

 Jesse, glad you made it home.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

I was impressed by the speed of the tonkin arrows. Where did you find the tonkin, Greg,  I am looking to start making arrows and want to try several materials for shafts.

Thanks for the help Greg. I hope to be in Clarksville this summer working on a self-bow and arrows. I might be calling looking for some help one weekend at the cabin. ;D
