The Definitive CW Arrow Thread

[Pippspriller]

Has anyone looked into carbon over aluminum type shafts? I never used them, so I'm a bit hazy but I believe they were marketed as A.C.E.
If anyone cares, the only real advantage IMHO to aluminum is that they don't explode into splinters when something goes wrong. So, your wrist doesn't get injected with carbon splinters when the arrow fails on the rest, and your meat doesn't get messed up if the arrow fails hitting bone. Also, it's easier to assess the condition of an aluminum arrow. Carbon keeps it's flaws hidden till it's too late. That being said, carbon does outperform aluminum.

Could this be the feathers used? Kind of a long shot, I know, but the closest I can find:
3 RW Parabolic Feathers [3 RW Parabolic Feathers] - $7.50 : MeanV Archery

Anyone working on the season 2 recurve compound bow? I found a cosplayer working on one. This is his latest picture, almost complete.
I really like this bow, it's so unique.

 

[Archer21]

Since it's been recently mentioned again, about the season 2 bow, the CP Oneida Kestrel: what exactly would you call the kind of camouflage pattern on it? You can see it pretty easily if you look at the limbs in some pictures. I would call it a sort of navy camo, but what do you guys think? I only ask because the Oneida site says that custom colors are available for the bow, riser, limbs, whole shebang.

I'm not sure what you would actually call the style of the camo, but Oneida does not do it. Oneida provides the black bow, and someone from production paints the camo. That information came directly from CP Oneida.

what about the herbs Oliver brings back from the island and the container that holds them, any word there?

The fletchette holder on his left forearm is different in Season 2.

Interesting.

It looks like two of the straps have little "pockets" that they slip into on the jacket.

 

[Primrodo]

YEah you can see the other sides holes on the fabric parts... Not sure how I feel about it though.
