Turkey hunting arrows
« on: April 08, 2016, 07:30:19 am »
Here are some turkey hunting arrows I just finished up.  The 3 longs ones are red osier.  They are longer because they had a stiffer spine.  The 2 shorter arrows are an unknown shoot I cut from a roadside last winter.  They were growing from a trunk that had been cut.  I plan to go back when leaves come out to figure out what they are as they made some nice arrows.  The arrows have field points on now but I will be putting some 145 grain 2 blade broad heads on soon.  All arrows shoot great out of the pictured bow.  Thanks for looking.

Nice. What did you stain them with?

Very nice! How do they shoot so far?
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short. Amen.

Jeff, I used dark brown rit dye to stain these arrows.  I then covered the, with 2 coats of had rubbed poly. 

Tracker, these arrows hit right where I look at to 20 yards.  Fly very straight. N

Thanks.
