What Sponsor sells good cedar shafts?

[Steve Clandinin]

I went out shooting yesterday and decided to shoot "Old School",left the Carbons and aluminums inside .I took out some of my homemade Cedar arrows and was reminded why I made them years ago.They flew like darts and were whisper quiet.I absolutely love every aspect of Wooden arrows.Just the smell of cedars brings back so many good memories.Its been along time since I put some together i don't even know who sells some good shafts.I use to dip and crest or can a person just wrap?

[cacciatore]

It depends how much time you want to put on them.For sure dip and crest is the way to go for full satisfation.This will make your long winter less boring.

Felix,Your right as I get older I'm always trying to find an easier way.Why the heck would I do that ,isn't this the reason we shoot what we do .There are NO shortcuts!LOL

[Jim Wright]

Some sponsor may have some but my experience with Cedar has been "good luck with that". Excellent Sitka Spruce with weights similar to Cedar can be obtained from Hildebrand and if heavier appeals,just as excellent Douglas Fir from Surewood Shafts is available as well. Neither smells as good as Cedar but both are durable, straight and make great wood arrows.

Fletcher is the man!

I bought some very good one from Cedarsmith in montrose,Co.I have seen a post somewhere that he moved and I can't tell you where.They were straight and very well matched in spine and weight.Then i bought some ash shafts from Silent Pond New England,they are much eavier than cedar but they hit hard too.

It's been a couple of years since I needed to order cedar shafts, but the last time I did, I was pleased with the hand spined shafts I bought from Kustom King.

So I'ma walking by the bay and I see Felix watching a submarine and I say , A Felix is thata U boat and Felix says No thats nota my boat I justa watch.
God Bless you all and have a great day. I get tapered cedars from a place in Grants Pass Ore but I don't believe that they are a sponser. I sure want to get some of those Doug fir shafts though. Steve

[Fletcher]

Good POC can be an elusive item these days, Steve. Try Lost Nation or 3RA.  I don't even consider shafts from Rose City.  I have Douglas Fir from Surewood and Sitka Spruce from Hildebrand.  Both are excellent shafts and more durable than cedar, but they don't have that aroma.

[Brently]

Give Ted at Raptor Archery a call, he has some really good poc that he has in stock but dosn't put on his web site.

[Brian Krebs]

I just got some last month from Kustom King- and one broke !  ( in a deer)    

[Steve Clandinin]

Thanks guys for all the good advise.

[Gerardo]

Surewood shafts, douglas fir they are awesome!!!!

[Gerardo]

Braveheart archery has them and he is a sponsor

[Steve Clandinin]

Brian,The best way to destroy a shaft!Gerardo.I will definately check out Surewood shafts,I've heard so many good things about them.no one better to deal with than Braveheart ,First Class.

[Steve Clandinin]

Sixby,I don't know if you have ever had the pleasure of meeting Felix,but a finer person you will never meet .We talk on a daily basis and I'm really hoping to share a camp with him next year.I 'm always kidding around and just like to tease him once in a while.If he ever offers to send you some cheese TAKE IT ! the best you will ever eat.All in fun.

[snag]

I'm just grateful that Surewood Shafts is making such a great shaft......don't miss cedar shafts with Surewood around!

[Brian Krebs]

I like the fact you can buy sets of different spine shafts to determine which spine shoots best for you (from Surewood Shafts).

[cacciatore]

Steve,I am humbled for your nice words,I can tell I have exactly the same feeling for you.
