This week Clay Hayes is building primitive arrows and trade point arrowheads. This video will go through the entire arrow making process from harvesting and straightening the river cane to forging handmade trade point arrowheads and fletching with wild turkey feathers and sinew.
Clay starts by roughly straightening the primitive arrow shaft materials over a fire before bundling them together to dry. While the cane is drying he fires up the coal forge and builds several trade point style arrowheads with tangs to mount into the hollow cane shafts.
Once the cane is dry, another straightening pass will ensure they're straight. Then self nocks are cut and the shafts fletched with wild turkey feathers and sinew. Clay shows how to make primitive fletchings and fletch the arrows by hand.
In next weeks video we will be making a sinew bow string for the primitive bow we made in last weeks video. This will complete our primitive hunting gear in preparation for an upcoming wild hog hunt.
Don't forget to subscribe to the channel. We're uploading a new video each week that features one of the following topics: bowhunting, bow building, survival skills, bushcraft, self reliance, primitive skills, primitive bows, hunting, camping, fishing, and a lot more!
