i have 15 cane shafts..
« on: March 07, 2010, 08:10:02 pm »
ive been going through a ton of cane shafts for oneeye, josh, and wildman.  they wanted shafts lighter than what im offering.  these 15 shafts are about 80-90 percent straightened, enough to be roughly spined.  they are 60 and over.  they are too heavy for me to use, and i dont know how else to get rid of them without burning them.  they were spined at 28 inch pegs, but are 32 inches and longer.  like i said, i just checked them quickly, and they are mostly over 60.  idk if anyone needs some this heavy, but if you do, let me know what you might have to trade.

A 28" cane arrow that spines 60# will shoot like a 50# spined arrow because of the taper. Add a few inches to the length and get it down to 40#.

id use it, but my draw length is shorter than i though, by only an inch, so i need to adjust my arrow length now.  so these would be too stiff for me at 28 inches..
 
skyarrow, itd be easier if i could text you, or you could text me back at 214 316 8997.  ive got some straightening to do

 There is no rule that says you have to shoot a 28" arrow. I shoot 65-70# splined arrows, 32-34" long out of my 55#-60#. That's what I hunt and 3-D shoot .

on your longer arrows, wrap some sinew or thread at the 28" mark.. when the thread hits your knuckle or rides across your arrow rest you will feel it and know you are at full draw.  That's what I do for my longer cane arrows and it works pretty good.   :)
