Item Description
:
This is a set of vintage Hugh Rich Deluxe arrows with Broadhead Bod-kin hunting tips. The total length is 32 1/4". The diameter of the shaft is 3/8". This is a vintage set and is in vintage condition. (See close-up photos.) This would be a nice set for a collector. These arrows could still be used. But, because of the condition of the feathers, they are probably more for hanging on the wall than shooting.
