I tried to get some, but the arrow maker said he couldn' t get ' em strong enough for my bow. Didn' t think it was that heavy, but it' s hard to find aluminum, what with the light and fast craze. What I' d like to know is why there is a difference in maple for pool cues and maple for arrows. Maple is the preferred wood in pool cues, which , it seems to me, goes through a similar distortion as an arrow , and yet hit after hit, they stay straight as an ?arrow?
