I see alot guys talking about Sitka Spruce, Poplar, Chundoo, Birch and others. Lot interest lately being shown towards Ramin....... I shoot cedar now and the dang things will break at the drop of a hat. I've got some new arrows ordered and told the guy to just surprise me on which wood... I also just purchased a large supply of Ramin to use for stumping etc.... Maybe I can also get a few dozen hunting arrows out of it.
Hmm..those pretty much seem to be all the ones I'm fam with...Chundoo (which I'm told is some type of pine?) I've had...it was a PITA to stain..had a very waxy surface...
Cedar is great.....cos it is easy to straighten even for a idiot like me...not durable, I'll agree with...but god I love breaking one every now and again...smells good!
Had a very nice doz. custom made cedar shafts from the local trad guy at one time...
I've been seeing something about a "grizzlystick"? anyone know what the hell that is?
I bought carbons for my new bow...will weight 'em up...but eventually I want to get back to woods when I'm able to go with a heavier poundage bow in the future...
