Default RE: New Archer: Tips & Questions

That is very interesting. I presume there is a special tool for tapering the shaft?

Two more questions if anyone has time:

1.) What is the most common wood type used for shafts (i.e. cedar, spruce, etc.)

2.) Do you practice with both broadheads and practice tips? Or do the arrows shoot basically the same with each?

Now the short answer you were probably looking for:
Taper the wood with a taper tool and glue the tip on. Irregardless of what glue you use be sure to completely degrease the tip.
