First complete set of primitive arrows

[Dan K]

Here are some pick of my own design primitive arrows made out of all natural materials. Ocean Spray and wild rose shoots, turkey fletchings held by sinew and hide glue. Sealed with shellac. The stone points I bought and not sure what they are.  If anyone can id them I thank you. I made the obsidian point (my first) on the end.  Points are hefted with sinew and pitch. Natural paint pigment and stain. Following my heart attack on New Year's Day and quad bypass surgery my cardiologist said no bow making, bracing, shooting...nada! Having the material around to make these up really helped from going nuts!  Thanks for looking, cheers!











Here's a close up of my first point!

Looks like a beauty set to me. Now you just need to get better so you can go use them! wish you a speedy recovery!

[Scottski]

Nice set of arrows there.get better soon so you can let us know how they fly.

[Fred Arnold]

Dan, Hope you recuperate fast. Great job on the shoot arrows. Might as well get your arrow stash built up for later. It's good therapy.

Does the kicker tail on the fletching buzz nicely in flight?  Cool idea!

[Badly Bent]

Nice arrows Dan, very original looking finish and fletching. Hope you have a speedy recovery and are able to get out shooting soon.

[Dan K]

Thanks for the comments!
JW, I shot a prototype at Christmas and it was surprisingly quite. Dead nut accurate and straight too. That's why I made a whole set. Kills me to have to wait to try them out. Tried to spine them the same but you never know with shoot arrows 'til you shoot em.

Top notch dan-o!

     Those are beautiful Dan.  If you want, I could be convinced to shoot them around a bit so you can see how they work.  If you don't like what you see, I'd be happy to take them off your hands.      Sounds like you're on the mend.

Thanks Bryce

Thanks Paoliguy!

[PAHunter]

Really love these!  Best of luck with a speedy recovery.  You'll be back shooting and building before you know it!

 Dan the Man, that's a whole lot of work right there buddy. A dozen primitive arrows is a large undertaking...Nice work and interesting feather design.

That's a really nice set, I like them ! One of the points looks like heated novaculite but not sure. Nice obsidian point! Follow docs orders and take care of the heart Dan!
