Got an awesome arrow from Mullet. I have plenty of cane, but this is the first bamboo arrow for me. Amazing the amount of spine you get from such a narrow shaft. Straight, well made with a well made legal hunting stone tip.
Thanks Eddie.

I'd like to post a picture. I've always used photobucket but they changed their sharing policy. Any suggestions for reducing photos to a size I can post. Is there a new site you guys use?

Glad it made it, Chuck, enjoy. It's splined 45-50.

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

I am just learning to knapp,  but I managed to get one nice point made this evening.  It will be going on my trade arrow.  The hard part is done now to make a straight stick!

Chuck, I switched to imgur for posting pictures.   Once I figured it out I found it much easier to use than photobucket.

I just sent mine out. I did get insurance on it. I sent it in PVC tube 35" long got $100 insurance cost $10.25 to ship. To add the insurance was $3.00 they gave me a receipt. If it doesn't make it to you in one piece Wildcat let me know. Hope you like it, I did. Kinda didn't want to let this one go.

Thanks Pat, hopefully I don't need it. I packed it so it should survive almost anything. Unless they lose it should be safe. Just figured for the $3.00 I'd at least feel like I tried to cover my bases. Never had to file a claim yet, but one thing that might help is small town Post Office. At least it's got people that will try to help me. One is my cousin who really appreciates the Primitive stuff I make.

I hope you saved your receipt from where you bought your arrow BJ.  That's the only way you can get reimbursed if it's damaged. 


I finally got time to start on my arrow today.  I got it dyed and sealed.

So, where are all of the arrow pictures? Or is everyone still shipping?
