Finished a half dozen flu flu arrows today. I use 5 1/2 inch long 4 fletch. I also made a few small game heads to go with them.

Are those crown dipped or arrow wraps? If they are dipped how did you do that?

I spray them with white lacquer and then crest by hand. and finally spray with a clear lacquer.
I used .025 spring (music) wire. I drilled holes in the field point and inserted the wire. I used a needle nose pliers to bend the wire to shape.

Im going to give that a try, simple , yet a good idea,
Thanks
They might be a little "girly", but they should be easy to find. Look good to me. Hap
Don't let Joe Slipp see those...He likes those pink girly girl....
I was thinking Team Skipper pretty in pink myself.... :biglaugh: Nice job on those arrows and tips.
well, u can have arrows that look girly that u can find in the brush, or u can go and get olive green and brown that are near impossible to find if u miss. Your choice
Yes I admit they are girly but I was thinking............... If I wore this while shooting them................

It takes a real man to wear pink. I'm not sure if the same applies to shooting pink :D
Put a Florida flamingo to shame :bigsmyl:
I like the arrows...want to sell one?
I bet that suit would fit me too...ha, ha, ha; but that's ok...
I think it probably looks better on you.
We doctored up some arrows like that in the '70s for a pigeon hunt. We used metal coat hanger wire with big loops; but yours is probably better.
I hope you hit more than I did.
Those arrows do look nice, and those points are really cool. How about a build along, of the points, with pictures?
I'm not sure what I'd show. You drill 2 holes at 90 degrees to each other. Insert the wire and bend it.
