Bamboo shaft question

<< < (2/2)

Hillbilly:
I've never seen the need to temper bamboo/cane myself, but the heat used for straightening probably does to some extent. I always temper hardwood shoot shafts, though, or they won't stay straight.

oldhippy:
I have used cane for the last four years and hardly use anything else.I do like Pat and after they are straightened, I like to toast them to a golden brown. In my experience, after they are tempered your arrows stay straight much longer than if you only straighten them. Steve
