POC Arrows Recommendation

09-13-2008, 10:48 AM

Guys, I just receieved a doz POC arrows for my selfbows from Paul Jalon, elitearrows. Works of art. I am so used to being disappointed from 3rivers, and others. Just plain junk from 3rivers especially. But I put these on a spine tester and all are within 2lb of each other. All wieght 460gr +/-6gr.

I have been shooting aluminum 1816's out of a 50lb osage bow, and they make alot of noise. But shot well, and now with these cedars, much quieter, and seem more forgiving.

If you need cedars, give em a call.

When I used to shoot cedars,I ordered a dz. that were supposed top be hand weighed and spined.They were the worst matched set of POC(or should I say POS

)arrowsI ever had.Never bought from them again.Glad you found a good arrowsmith,it definitely makes a differance

I have been thru 2 sets of cedars that varied in wieght 100gr. Varied in spine 10lbs. Thats crazy. Like you Jim, I swore em off. But if these work out well this season, I might go back to cedars for my heavy bows too.

What are you talking about Russ. You probably would just go out to your shop and whip up a doz in a few hours.

As fast as you and Burnie makes bows, arrows would bea piece of cake. I am still on my second self bow for months now.

You dont have a drum sander laying around collecting dust by any chance?
