There's a guy out in Forks that uses the arrow over again.  Killed something like 40 bulls and even more bucks all with the same arrow.  I'm impressed he finds it so often.

Is the resin clear or tinted brown like it looks in the pic?
the resin is still a brown color, I dont think I put enough hardner or the cold weather hindered a proper cure :dunno:  I went to pull it out of the tupperware dish,and liquid poored out from the sides.  Looks like I may need to redue the process :bash:

It could take a few days for that to harden, prob needs to cure at a temp around 70, very cool idea I will prob do the same thing to one of my broadheads

one thing for sure, dont have anything flammable around that when its curing.  The liquied gets almost too hot to touch, im suprised the tupperware contatiner didnt melt.

Clean them up and reuse them.  I'm poor, can't afford new arrows.

I'll wipe it off and keep using it, being that it's close to $25, arrow and broadhead combined. :bash:

I'm suprised that with the type of broadheads you use they don't just bounce off the animal.   :chuckle: 

I keep the arrow until it breaks.
