How To Make Arrows For Less Than $2 Each

In this video I'll show you how to make arrows from wooden dowels for less than $2 each. After making that initial set of arrows and getting over that hurdle, arrow making is a pretty easy and very rewarding process. In this video we'll go over 5 simple steps from choosing materials to fletching and collaring the final arrows.

If you need a bit more guidance or just some more background knowledge check out my how to get started in archery video: youtube.com/watch?v=2kfvyXPXOJA&t=1007s
and be sure to watch Nicholas Tomihama's fetching video for more information on fetching: youtube.com/watch?v=jJ3DOt3ERjA

These arrows are great for field archery and stumping and wit a little modification could be made into archery tag or LARP arrows.

A couple extra points:
While I hope its obvious, wooden arrows should not be shot from a compound bow unless they are specially made for that purpose with a thicker shaft and perfect grain. Actually, better to just not, carbon arrows aren't expensive enough to take that risk.

I didn't mention left or right wing feathers in the video because it doesn't matter which you use as long as you fletch sets with the same side. As long as you use all left wing or all right wing it wont matter which you are using. Also, use a super thin layer of glue to attach the feathers, adding a lot just means that they take forever to dry.

If you fletch arrows with three feathers make sure that the small fin that comes on most nocks faces the cock feather. This way you can nock without looking.

I use five inch shield cut feathers because they fly well and more importantly they look cool, shorter feathers are going to be easier to attach especially if you are fetching hand.
