High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A Swiss arrow, more commonly called a Dutch arrow, but also a Yorkshire arrow, or a Gypsy arrow is similar to a standard arrow, with the addition of a small notch close to the fletching. Swiss arrows, unlike standard arrows, are thrown rather than shot from a bow, and in this sense are more accurately described as darts than arrows. The arrow shaft is made from wood, and generations of British schoolboys have found that 18 inch (~45cm) green garden canes are perfect for the job, being straight and lightweight. A slit is cut at one end to take a pair of card flights, and the other end is given a point. An all-important notch is cut into the shaft, just below the flights. After the flights are inserted, the open end of the slit is closed with string or a rubber band to prevent the flights from falling out.
