Hi guys/girls.
One of your moderators (Don McGruder)asked me to come over here and show you all something that has caught the attention of a bunch of folks in the archery community, especially on the 3d courses across America.
Victory Archery, a company out of San Diego Ca. is offering pink arrows and a large portion of the proceeds go to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. The arrows come in 3 spines (.350, .400 and .500) and are .003 straight. These arrows are very good looking and have a shiny coating which makes them stick out in a crowd.

The popular trend is for guys and girls who shoot target archery to carry one arrow in their quiver to show their support.

I have been fletching these arrows with one pink and two white Blazer vanes and they look sharp. I can fletch them in any configuration you'd like or just send you the shaft(s) if thats what you'd like.

If anyone is interested in this, please respond and I'll post my prices. I was hesitant to come on this site hawking merchandise because being a new guy here and not knowing how you'd react, I didn't want to sound pushy or anything like a salesman.

Hopefully the picture shows up because they are really good looking arrows.

Thanks!

Thanks for bringing this here Jon, it's a great cause.

For anyone that is interested in making a purchase from Jon, this is definitely a legit business that he has, you will not be disappointed. Don Mcgruder found this available on the BowCountry site and the sales have been outstanding over there.

Lets help them out and show our support from MNO.

Jon, i fixed your pic too.

Thanks Pat.
Seems like every site's template is a little different, some allow pics uploaded and other have to have a picture hosted at another site....Glad you fixed it!

Again, thanks for the welcome and give me a shout if anyone might want to support the cause.

Shipping is the same whether you buy 1 or a dozen. It basically costs me $5.85 +/-to ship them in the CONUS. I will sell them by the dozen fletched for $80 or 1/2 dozen for $40 plus shipping. I'll ship one for $12, 2 for $20, 3 for $26, 4 for $32, 5 for $38

What a great idea ! I would like to see them sold around MN at different events to really get the word out. I am sure the archery community would show great support. I know myself and the people I shoot with will have one in the quiver.

I carry mine when ever I shoot.  Its actually a great looking arrow but I won't knock it up.  They can be ordered from Jon online and you pay with Paypal.  I don't know who he gets them from but if you wanted to set up a local sale of them, Im sure Jon would fill you in on how to get them.  I don't know how often he's on line here but I know another place where you can reach him every day.
