I was having a conversation yesterday with a fellow bow hunter/friend (wheelie guy, gasp! Haha), and the subject turned to my trad gear. He was surprised to see wood arrows in my bow quiver. It got me thinking, I KNOW people still hunt with wood arrows, but how many? I have carbons, (GT Traditionals), but I love my woodies so much more! They shoot so quiet and true. I enjoy knowing how each one behaves, and working on them. I don't build my own (yet) but I still put in effort to get the tips mounted perfect, keep any slight bends out, etc. I know it can be a little hassle from time to time, but I honestly don't mind. Now, after reading back some years in the forums, I can sort of see the carbon tide roll in. They do make sense, durable, easy to adjust FOC, straight, cheap (relatively) etc. Most of the "pros" for woodies seems to be their smell when they break, hahah. So, if you're a woody hunter, please stand and be counted. What do you hunt with them, what heads do you like, tips or tricks for maintenance and upkeep, etc. Thanks in advance! I would love to see how woodies are still dropping critters big and small in a "techy" world of today!
