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

Who can make me wooden arrows, and quick?

#1 Post by yeoman » Mon Mar 21, 2016 7:20 am

Hi all,

I'm after a new big box of ammo. Specifically, wood shafts, target points, feather fletches (real or fake, just not solid vanes; for shooting off the hand).

I have a box of components, but don't have the time on my hands to assemble them right now.

These arrows are for use by students on my bowmaking courses. Given the range of bow draw weights made, I'm after the following:

6 only @ 30#/28" draw
1 doz @ 35#/28" draw
1 doz @ 40#/28" draw
1 doz @ 45#/28" draw
6 only @ 60#/28" draw

I still have enough 50# and 55# arrows to last me a while longer.

Cheers,

Dave

Thank you everybody for your prompt responses.

I wish I could get arrows from all of you - I'm sure they'd all be fine examples.

I have made contact with a vendor that has agreed to help me out. Stay tuned, I'll post pictures of my new box of ammo when it arrives.

Cheers,

Dave
