Rivercane from supply trade
Swampman:
Very nice. Looks like they shoot well.
bjrogg:
Thanks everyone
Redhand no I don't plan on making forshaft. I've done it before and if I was hunting to survive and carrying everything I owned I can see its advantages. For myself hunting and practicing I shoot a one piece arrow slightly better and easier to make. I do find two piece arrows interesting though and may make one or two if I have a short cane shoot. I might be able to come up with a combination to get a little more forward weight for my spine.
Thanks Ed I really do like Red Osier to but this cane is much fast and easier to work. Red Osier can sometimes be frustrating to get straight and keep straight but makes a really nice arrow when you find the ones that work. Before you get to impressed with the shooting you should know this is from about ten yards. I'm not that good past fifteen.
Hawkdancer they are close but still bareshaft a little stiff. I think I'd like to try a heavier point but can't find one locally. Might have to do like Dbar and make my own. I'm new to this cane and not sure if I can scrape it down more to lower its spine or not. I'd really like a heavier point anyway.
Thanks Swampman and Morgan

Redhand:
Cool I bet they are a quick arrow. I would like to get some river cane to try some day.
Here lately I have been using phragmites they work pretty good. I use a grease wood fore shaft with a self point that I glue into the phragmites. And when it comes time to hunt I just add on a stone point, it doesn't change the way the arrow flies.
So through the summer months I’m shooting the arrow I will be hunting with in the fall. It works good for me in that way.

BJ make you've got some at Marshall I'd like to see them first hand. Looks good from here.
