Help ID Wood Shafts
« on: January 14, 2010, 08:06:00 AM »
Got a bunch of raw shafts but I cannot ID whether they are Lodgepole pine, Cedar, or Chundoo. Any tricks to ID the shafts?

Thanks

I dunno but maybe the smell?
Its not the size of the animal you hunt that matters. Its how you hunt the animal.

Chundoo is lodgepole pine.  So grind a nock on the end and smell it.  If it's ceder or pine you will be able to tell the difference.
