Count me in,  :saywhat:  I might be able to stick an arrow together.
Just let me know where to send it and if we need to leave it full length or do we cut it and put a point on it.
Regards.
Bert.  :wavey:

Ok, leave it full length, untapered tip? Is the bow center cut, 1/16", 1/8"??? Just let me know where to mail it to and it's done. Thanks, David

If you leave them untapered you are assuming the person to be able to tune, cut, taper and glue - no "newbie" will do that - just a thought

All the shafts I have in stock are 75# and heavier....I can get some lighter ones if need be...??? If we are talking a 44# bow, even if it is a recurve cut to center 75# is going to be too stiff.

Imo I think they should be untapered and uncut so if the winner of the bow decides to shoot it and has a 29"or 30" draw he can cut them.If a newbie wins the auction and can spend that type of money he or she could afford to get them cut.The bow specs are 66" 44#@28.David I shoot 70-80# shafts but I will see if I can acquire a 45-50# shaft for ya.

Let me see if I got this right 44@28 and just a guess that will be the draw with a +3/8" cut I'm coming up with a 46# spine. Do you all think that's close enough? That was figuring a 31.25 shaft and a 125 point.Also all I have in that spine are 5/16 shafts.

I'm thinking  45-50# spine for any wood arrow due to the centershot...Gold Tip 35/55 would work CE Thunderstorms would work....
