Tapered Cedar VS Parallel Cedar ?
«

Just wanted to pick the brains of some of you more experienced fellas out there. I have some old parallel cedars that I am currently shooting out of my Liberty longbow. At my short draw the weight is 45-47 lbs. I can't remember what spine these are but they shoot like darts out of this bow. Problem is I have only 4 of them left. Was going to order some new but didn't know if tapered is worth the xtra money and what are the advantages? Thanks, Mark

Tapered recovers faster from Archer's Paradox and promises to be more accurate at the end of the day. Frankly, I shoot both equally well -or poorly. Make sure spine is correct, and point and nock are accurate, and let your budget answer the 'taper' question.

Ive never noticed a real advantage with tapered shafts. I'd rather have the extra shaft weight of a parallel shaft. Think about it. We all shoot aluminum shafts pretty well and they aren't tapered.
Just my 2 cents.
