Glow Arrows
 
If y'all are like me, you tend to loose arrows all the time. Well I've come up with a little something that might help a little bit in finding some of those arrows. I call them Glow Arrows, but they don't glow in the dark until you shine a "Blue or Black" light on them. That way you aren't glowing as you sit in the tree before daylight or as you are waiting on those pigs to come in. When you shine a blue light on them they really light up bright and are very easy to see. Here are a couple examples.

They are still pretty bright and easy to see in the daylight also. The little light I was using to take the after dark pictures was on of those cheap ones that clip on the brim of your hat.

Is that a special feather/paint or something you've sprayed/dipped? It could be very helpful. You sure build some pretty arrows..

The paint is made by Bohning, called Saturn Yellow and I mixed the green (a little bohning green in the saturn yellow). The feathers are AMGs but some of the Trueflight feathers might work. It was luck that I found it, but it is a good thing to know.

BTW thanks for the compliment!!!!:)
