Darn it, Jim, you made all the points I was going to make! Wish I'd seen this earlier!

Best,

Sorry Fearn but as always, when I realized I knew zippety do dah about crossbows, let alone the arrows I hit the references, and Henk's note on the leather as well as Michaels got my curiosity into fever pitch! You already knew this stuff, and your notes would have been more thorough, so didn't mean to be a thunder thief !!

The last time I got this into arrows, it was as I mentioned earlier...trying to figure out how the heck the grizzled old cowpoke in those westerns could ride up to a frontier battle scene, pick up an arrow and proclaim...yup, its the Kiowa..or Apaches....or Kickapoos!! or whatever.
But thats a whole nuther story,

All the best,
Jim
