Longer wooden shafts
« on: November 09, 2016, 11:00:00 AM »
Anyone know where I can get raw wooden shafts, preferably cedar, longer than 32in.? I am only online in work and get blocked from a lot of sites. Thanks in advance.

Forrester Shafts is a good option.

Reparrows are also a good option and easy to install on your own.

Right now I'm shooting 65-70 cedar with a 190gr ribtek. Finished arrows coming in around 610gr.

My dad is gonna hook me up with some cedar shafts from Rose City Archery in Oregon.

I believe he said they have 34" shafts.

Hope this helps.

I'll say again, get Steve's shafts and Jim's repparrows!

Alot stronger than cedar!
