Thanks guys. I have 1 1/2 dozen shafts now. All from HD. I hope that is enough to practice with :) If not I reckon I'll go back and get some more :-\ By then our first trad shoot will be here and I can ask a real pro :) I'm going to try to straighten a few tomarrow after gluing the handle on my first board bow.

Try watchin that video I posted. It might help a bit if u can tell what I'm doing! At the end I explain my process
riarcher:
Billy-
Suggest you start right off hard.
Begin straightening with the most God awful crookedest piece you've got.
Then you know fer sure, it only gets easier from there. ;)
hillbilly61:
riarcher-- Now that sounds like a good idea.I looked at them and started to pick the best one to try :-\ but if I do what you suggest I'll be able to see progress better ;D
earo86 I like that idea too, but with dial-up it takes fooorrreevveeerrrr to download a video :(
Canoe:
Howdy Group,
Hedge apple, you said, "look for 3/8" at the nock end..." So, is the nock end the smaller end, so the other end will be over 3/8"?
Thanks, I'll be heading over to HD or Lowe's real soon to get me started in boo arrows - Thanks again guys. Ya, I'm really excited about making more of my own arrows. Next, I'll be lookin' to do some flint knapping.
Hillbilly, good luck on that first board bow. I love board bows - quality huntin' weapons ;) I made one for my buddy, he took it hunting this past year, and he loves shooting the thing.
