- Here I show you how I made a set of River Cane arrows from start to finish. I used Pheasant tail feathers for the fletchings. Arrows are 29.5 inches long.

Hey, we all love ol Jackcrafty
Very nice looking arrow 🏹
You do A nice job 😊
Thanks. That was a great demonstration.
This is called Arundo Donax. confusingly, its also called rivercane. but its not the same as the rivercane used by apache or other native tribes. That stuff is only found on the east coast, and is a type of bamboo. But this is an introduced species that is now invasive in the west. Its more of a reed species. I tried making arrows out of it but its just really fragile compared to bamboo. It does make for great atlatl darts though.
Thanks for sharing.
Brilliant
Why not make the grooves for the arrowheads parallel to the nock? That's how I would have done it intuitively.
Awesome! Great video!!! I've been trying to search for articles on what the apache used for arrows, I couldn't find much.
The plant you are crafting arrows with is Arundo donax. It is more accurately a giant reed and classified by the USDA as an invasive species in temperate areas of the US. It is also used as a reed material in some types of bagpipes. Your bows are really nice.
Thank you!!
I think it's also called phragmites
Please make video on plant from which you made arrow.Great work man .keep it up
its river cane
Awesome video! I definitely need to try and make some of these (at least better than I did before) to go with my Hophornbeam Blackfoot bow you made for me! The bow is still holding up and doing well, definitely will be buying another in the future from you.
Thanks for the support. Glad you are enjoying the bow, send a pic or video of you shooting it sometime, i'd like to see that!
Great video, happy you gave a shoutout to jackcrafty.💪💪💪💪💪.
When is the build along for the arrows you made for your Egyptian bow coming up?
The craftsmanship that went into making those arrows would hve made the pharoahs smile .
Lol, i may make another one just to put up the tutorial. Thanks for commenting. I love jackcrafty's work
@@legionnairearchery and we love your work all the way from Africa bro .
I keep on saying the love for the bow and arrow is everywhere .
Keep the videos coming 👍👍👍👍👍👍.
@@immortalayarna damn, thats far, thank you
Great work but just a bit to fast for me
Would love to see in slow motion.
So one question, was it the nock end you put the plug in? Again enjoyed this
Yes, the nock end you can plug, its optional.
@@legionnairearchery are those re eal pheasant feathers or craftstores feathers and will craft store feathers work
Just made one for a yard rabbit ! Barbequed rabbit 🤣
No helical on the fletchings? How do they work like that?
They work fine. I like the spin on helical though.
What do you mean "how do they work like that"? Haven't fletchings been made like this in the entire history of humankind?
@@Serjo777 Most Native American cultures put the fletchings on helically, not straight up and down. This causes the arrow to spin through the air, thus making it more accurate. (like putting a spiral on a football pass). Without the helical fletching, the shaft will probably fly less true. If you use wing feathers, like from a turkey, they have a natural helical bend to them if you use feathers from the same side, ie.all right wing or all left wing for each shaft. Early man was pretty smart.
I like the Western Plains style but here is the Eastern Woodlands style. Pinch grip too. ruclips.net/video/wiSMpfGvQWs/видео.html
Older vid with a longer explanation of the whole process too! Check him out! He deserves the exposure! ruclips.net/video/sBl1SSJkr5s/видео.html
Your arrows look very nice. It seems like you have had to stray quite a bit from the original materials that American tribes would have used. Neither the Arundo Donax nor the Chinese ringneck feathers are materials that Native Americans of the 18th or 19th Centuries would have had access to. Obviously, they didn't order their points from India, either. I guess you know about native glues but chose to go the synthetic route instead. You do seem to be very handy in putting it all together and came up with an interesting final product. See HuntPrimitive.
