No, decided it's not worth it to have to baby gear meant for hunting.  It's also an issue of being able to trust my gear...say I go to another 3D shoot at the pueblo, and it's hot and sunny with no shade.  Can I trust that my humidor pampered arrows won't dry out too quickly and warp or crack?

Russ:
Stupid question but are they sealed? If you humidify them and then seal them with tru oil it should stop the moistuer from comimg out

DC:
It slows it down but it doesn't stop it.

Sealed with Tru Oil and periodically rubbed down with a paste wax.  As DC stated, it can slow down the moisture loss but I don't think any finish could completely stop it.

Russ:
Hmm. Let me think. I have some ideas i believe.    >:D
