Where to source materials etc. Also the place to show off your new bow or quiver etc.... Making things belongs in Traditional Crafts.

Traditional Arrows --- The question you did not want .....

Morning All.

Someone asked about "Traditional Arrows" and just what are "Traditional Arrows".

You may be interested in looking at this production. Just take note that that is one persons interpretation of arrows from previous times.

A further point to note.

For those enamoured with the 12" of Fletching concept take note of the reproductions of the arrows of Will and Maurice Thompson.

If you have not read "The Witchery of Archery" then, probably, you should. There are lots of downloads on the net available. After reading it will you still call Flu-flus, "Flu-Flus"? Just to be difficult they didn't and that is probably the first use of the expression in print.
