Bob Burton  www.whisperingwindarrows.com  makes the best I've seen. He uses split hex shafts in either footed or non footed. They are works of art as well as good shooting arrows. Frank

For cost and what goes into them, I don't think Paul at eilitearrows.com can be matched.

Gee this is a tuff one    :readit:   . LOL  My second choice would be you but you just don't know it yet.  There are lot of fine arrowsmiths out there,    :thumbsup:    and to say who's the best? Well your going to get many different answers to that.

I recently bought arrows from Paul at elite arrows and can vouch that he's a pleasure to do business with and the arrows are top notch.  Prettiest arrows I've seen and they fly good.

I've also had good experiences with Troy B. at sticks and feathers and Raptor.

I can second Mike's recommendation. Elite Arrows are top notch!

Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"

me. As a matter of fact, that's the wife's nickname for me- Woody. Cause I build such fine arrows.

Troy Breeding makes some mean sticks too!

Sweet!!!  Biggie you're my kind of guy. was thinkin along the same lines when I first read the topic. As far as arrows go all depends on what your willin to pay. there was a guy (Joe)on the sponsor's classifieds section sellin woodies all done up $40 1/2dz TYD. anybody who makes woods knows that that about covers materials and shipping. I bought some from him and his work is tops....Mark

The Gentleman who makes the best wood arrows that I know of is fellow TradGang member and Sponsor Joe Skipp who owns Renegade Archery.

Unfortunetly I don't think Joe is building arrows anymore   :(   Looks like I'm going to have to find a new source for my arrows. After shooting Joe's arrows though,everything else just seems "second-best".

(p.s. no offense to anyone intended)
I only shoot WOOD arrows... My kid makes them, fast as I can break them!

There is a fine line between Hunting, & Sitting there looking Stupid...

May The Great Spirit Guide Your Arrows..... Happy Hunting!!!
