The best part of building arrows - shooting them!
As you can see in the left picture, I need to make the nocks a little more narrow, so they will hold on better to the string.
I'm happy to say that apart from that, they shoot beautifully!
One little accident... I set up the target at a too steep angle, and a sudden wind blew it over. With three arrows sticking in it... Thankfully, my new arrow somehow survived. On the downside, two of my older arrows took the blow and broke.
Well, I guess that means I should make some more of these pretty ones!
