Bart is a gentle giant and a great man.
You are lucky to have him as a good friend.
Of course you already know that.
You are very correct. Swung by Bart's and now we have a few things to work with, like a 30" 60-80# bow, 3 stabilizer, shafts for 30+ arrows, nocks, inserts, field tips, serving string, and a number of tools I need to figure out how to use. We'll see how it goes. I now have a lot of tools I knew I needed. Thanks!

Dag nabbit Andy ....If you where not in such a hurry to go and shoot at the the winter LCR, I would've included the 5 quivers and the rest of the stuff you left behind. No worries, the rest of the " 25 YEAR OLD " stuff will show up at the bank the middle of this coming week. I did like that 1911 you had squirreled away on your hip though.

Wow. Got my care package. A bunch of quivers and the holy grail, impossible to find Beman outserts for 40-50 arrows, to go with the 40+ Beman arrows I now have. I swung by the Cabela's archery department and two of the guys really liked seeing the older arrows.
I'll pick up a few more solvents to see which works best on the old fletchings.
Thanks sir!

Tried Xylol, Lacquer Thinner, Goof Off and Acetone for the old fletching. Acetone was the trick. Soaked for 30 minutes and they came right off. No scrubbing or scraping needed. Ready for refletching. The pink ones were rotten, broke up when I removed them from the package. Green, black, and gray were good to go. Looks like I need to buy a few more fletching jigs, as I have 45 arrows to get set up. Thank you!
