Those look great, I use to crest my arrows, but now I am more concerned on where they land as to what they look like. Sorry, I know it sounds sarcastic, not intending it that way... They do look great...

I'm putting together a photo essay for the bowhunting forum tomorrow about building your own homemade cresting machine and then walking the reader through the process of capping/cresting their own arrows.

WOW Greg those look great!

but I'm afraid I would never find them after the shot.

A few years ago I got a deal on some camo shafts with brown and green fletchings they looked awsome. But I have never lost arrows that fast[:@]

Rev, I see your point, I dont get too carried away or fancy butit sure helps see these little guys zip thru the trees

Utah, that's why they're capped with the gloss white... no problem at all in seeing them after the shot!
