All primitive, cane from Mark, turkey feathers, sinew and pine pitch set with self nocks

Very nice. They should do the trick for you. Only thing I'd suggest is to add more wrap behind the point. I usually go about 1" wide for my wraps at the point.

I think youre right, Pat. I do want to add a little more wrapping behind the point.

Also, forgot to mention, they came in pretty light at 415 grns. Is that common for cane?  Even added dowel to the front to give it FOC.  But should I be concerned to shoot these from a 55# bow??

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

Nice!

I don't think I've ever had a cane arrow come in that light. Did you spine test them?
