Rummage Sale Finds
« on: August 14, 2004, 07:29:44 PM »
Hit the perverbial jack pot today found a sale that had a bunch of arrows and archery stuff. When I pulled up a guy was loading a HUGE box of arrows into his Caravan I am not kidding you it took up the whole back! I thought shoot lost out on that deal I asked the lady what did they go for? She said more in the garage so I checked it out. I got 16 2117's and 2219's to make bolts out of for my crossbow and 22 cedar arrows for a buddy who shoots a recurve. The arrows were 10 Cents a piece.  :) THen I found a average size tackle box full of vintage and new style broadheads, Target Tips, Judo points, fishing heads,  and odds and ends. I asked the guy got any fletching tools as I do not have one. He found 3. a Esterbrook straight clip, Mono Fletcher with a right offset clip and a Bitzenburger  fletchmaster magnetic base  no clip.   all for the grand total of $12.60 for my stuff and a other $2.20 for the cedar arrows for my buddy. Went to GanderMountain and picked up a straight clip for Ten bucks it is a exact Copy of a Bitzenburger Clip but made out of plastic but it does have a metal plate on the back so it fits on the Bitzenburger Magnets. That box the guy bought before me I bet had 200 arrows in it if not more.  Anyway I am glad of what I found I needed a fletcher now I have 2 straight ones and will give the offset one to a buddy. Gotta love those rummage sales.  :)
Said I never had much use for one, never said I didn't know how to use it.
