Shafts at Home Depot

El Destructo:
No...if the Point Hits left and the Nock leans right...for a Righty...not a Lefty now....it's overspined... and yes...remember that if yo push down straight on a shaft of Boo or Cane...the Arrow will bend towards to weaker Side...

The Picture....

1) Spined Correctly / Nocked Correctly

2) Nocking Point Too High

3) Nocking Point too Low

4) Underspined

5) Overspined

6) Underspined / Nocking Point High


Hope that this helps you........

Shopping the home and tool "salvage store" yesterday and found a corner with a bunch of plastic bags containing 6 bamboo or maybe tonkin poles that are 60 inches  long...the package says they are "plant stakes". I bought 2 packages for 1.99 each. Brought them home and cut them at 31 inches and as close to the same size as possible. I've got 12 decent looking shafts for perhaps a 50-60 pound bow. Now to clean, sand and straighten them....I like it!

Looking on the web to see if I got a deal or not and found this site..http://www.amleo.com/index/item.cgi?Words=n601&cmd=view

I don't want my arrows 3/8" at the point end, much less the nock end, most cane or boo I've used that would make them stiff as a fence post. Most of my cane arrows wind up about 23/32" or 11/32" at the point, and around 5/16" at the nock end. And that's leaving them a few inches longer than my draw length.
