Arrow Diameter
« on: September 24, 2008, 08:05:00 PM »
Stupid Question,

I bought some stuff off of **** from a gentleman, in the deal were 24 port orford cedar shafts but no diameter size was given. How do i determine if they are 5/16, 11/32, or 23/64 so i can order my points?

Generally that measurement would be made with a caliper then converted to a fraction.

You could also compare them to drill bits if you have those sizes.

Measure the end with a ruler.

Do you have any other shafts? Most carbon are 5/16"...

A tape will always work...
