Light staining below the cresting. Brings out what little grain and birds eye there is on these great shafts..

in reply to: Question about wood arrow finishes #11171

I have been using deft lacquer to seal mine. Dries to a nice finish. Using two coats and then waxing them after fletching. Not affected by moisture and heat like poly is.

Its a tapering style I have used for almost 30 years. I generally do this with My poplar shafts. I was shown this style back in the 80’s by a gentleman in Vermont. This is old school coming back around. If you have never used Kevin’s shafts, you should try them..They are fantastic.

Good Luck to You. I deal with arthritis also, but I never seem to notice it when I am drawing on a game animal, rest of the year I suffer…

I have field tested it on a beef leg, and it cuts like a scalpel. I have not sharpened it yet, as it is still like a razor. I do have a small copper tool that I can knapp a new edge on it if needed..Looking forward to using it this fall in Utah on either a deer or elk, depending on how well My hunts go.

Many Fine books on the subject available. Leave the online stuff to the techno geeks and run to the Library. If you need a reminder what a book is..They are made of paper and can be stored on a shelf when not in use. You can return to them for reference, pass them on, and best of all, they don’t require batteries or electricity

in reply to: P&Y changes mind #23038

When a Club strays from its core values to accommodate individuals need to boost their ego by using technology to Kill(mind you NOT harvest} a record book animal, Than maybe that club has deemed itself moot and needs to be disbanded..

I rarely jump into these discussions. I have been a Traditional Longbow/Recurve hunter my whole life. Never used anything resembling gadgets to enjoy the Sport of Archery. Have kept my freezer full, My family fed, and have enjoyed moments in the field that will go with me to the grave..

That being said..We as Hunters, Archers, and Outdoors men(that includes the Female gender, so don’t beat me up over it)need to band together, stay united, and keep these bad apples out of the woods. They have altered Game Laws and bag Limits, Destroyed the Environment with their reckless abandon and ATVs, and Just made the woods a mess..

I for one support Fair Chase, NO Technology, and damn sure no ATVs. Hunting was supposed to be an escape from the modern hustle and bustle, and these lazy glory hounds have dragged that to the Wilderness many of us so cherish..

Gauntlet thrown Boys and Girls…Anyone have enough backbone to pick it up and run with it???? Count Me in
