I don't, but I have always wanted to start doing it. I am hoping to purchase some things in the near future so I can.

Have been doing them myself and selling them for about 4 years. It is great to harvest a deer with an arrow that you put together. I do it all... wrap, fletch, cut, install inserts, etc. Be glad to give advice to anyone who needs it.

You guys are youngins, I've been making my own arrows for alittle over 30 years now , started with cedars back when I shot recurve and long bow then aluminum and now carbon. And it realy is a very good feeling when you take down your game with equipment you made yourself.

I started doing mine a few months after I bought my first bow. I figured if something goes wrong with the arrow then I want it to be on me and not because I didn't take the time to do it. I actually really enjoy doing it and enjoy getting them as slick as I can. I enjoy making my arrows pretty

I suppose you were chopping down trees, whittling them down to a shaft and using sharpened rocks as broadheads. Probably some of your broadheads me & Mike found last spring while turkey hunting. JK I know you have tons of experience. I will bring my recurve when I come down next so we can shoot 'em up.

Nice looking arrows Dave. I just gotta say arrow aren't meant to be pretty. They are meant to inflict much hemorrhaging ultimately resulting in a quick death. Just messing with you guys!!

I started building my own arrows this year, everything but cut them but I plan to purchase an arrow saw later this year. I will tell you it does add to the satisfaction of the kill when you harvest something with an arrow youve built. It felt sweet when I harvested my ram earlier this year and the guide was looking over my arrows saying they look pretty good, and I could respond yea I put them together. Very Happy

doing mine for about 15 years.

the best thing is that you play with so many different combos and if they get screwed up the only one to blame is youself.

i love it...it is soooo relaxing to me...refuse to do any of my budds arrows though cause of course when they miss a target or get slapped by another arrow and forget to check their fletchings and lose a fletching on the next shot....YEP its the BULLs fault...So like i told the Big Indian..."HE IS ON HIS OWN"!!!!
