I'm more impressed that you are using aluminum arrows.   Send it!!!

"Game Changer"
 :IBCOOL:

My Dad made his own set up in the 60's and it got used a lot with all kinds of different arrows for a lot of years. There were a lot of those moments in the 20 years that followed. Fun stuff!

Yep.  Running different colors will definitely throw the balance off...

Hey a fellow Easton Camo hunter user. Can I ask where you got those nocks?

We all have long nights on the fletching jigs haha.

It's like wearing your hat backwards, just showing you are a cool kid. :chuckle:

I did that once, but happened to notice it after the first fletching.
