Greg I would love to come but unfortunately all my $ is tied up in launching this business and other family matters. Let me know the other dates other dates you are considering, and God and I will try to work it out.

Re: Ancient Paths Traditional Archery
You've got my business for sure. Your now 1 project behind jun my queue. If my bid for a Brescia Spadona falls through I'm going to have to divert some of that money to your arrows. really good looking work. So nice it'd hurt a little to fire them and eventually wear them out. only hurts a little though so I'll be shooting those bad boys.

Re: Ancient Paths Traditional Archery
Rocky,
I am seriously considering asking you to make me a dozen for this month coming up. All my arrows are crap cajuns that did not even have the shafts tipped so any time I hit something hard they broke off from impact.
I was thinking about the russet color feathers with the cockfletch being green
(I realize I run the risk of making it hard to find but they will look so good in my quiver!)
Shoot me a PM when you have a few minutes and we can talk.

Re: Ancient Paths Traditional Archery
Hey fellow rangers I want to post a correction, the male peacock flight feathers should read "Faux". Actual Peacock flights are very expensive(Cheapest I could find on line were $3 a piece!). They are referenced in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales as the fletchings on the Yoeman's arrows. The dyed turkey feathers that I did are a spot on match though, if I do say so my self! Pics to follow!
