Viking,
I haven't had them that long so I can't comment on how straight they stay. But, from everything I've read from others who shoot them, they stay very straight and are very tough.
As to weight, I haven't weighed them yet, but even with them being barrelled they are a good bit heavier than the tapered cedar shafts I have been shooting. They fly great out of my longbow, even though it only draws 51#. But then again, the Chek-Mate Crusader is a nice shooting longbow!
Chad,
What else did you want me to say about the Crusader? <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
