Then aluminum or other woods?

For wood:

Better would be described as what attributes you are looking for.

For straightness, I think cedar is best.
For weight, the heaviest would be ash/maple/laminated birch. Fir is also heavier then cedar but lighter then the others mentioned.
For ease of straightning, I think fir would be the easiest. Some of the hard woods require heat.
For retention of straightness, I think cedar would be best.
If you are looking for higher FOC, you could use a footed arrow. But you still won't too high.
