privet arrow shafts

<< < (2/3) > >>

Black Moshannon:
Nice arrows, I love using invasives cause it gets rid of them in a useful way. I use multiflora rose and Amur honeysuckle and they both come in at a heavy weight like yours, around 700 grains

Chumash:
I like it. Especially with the bark on.

Piddler:
Those look good BowEd. Guess I shouldn't have burned all those I cut and dried. I've been trying to wipe them out around my place. Horribly invasive.

My multi flora rose does not come in as heavy as these privets.Weight wise multi flora rose comes in about the same as dogwoods only slightly thicker overall.When I said privet comes in at + 700 grains I meant many come in at 725 to 750 grains.All being the same.
Shooting them off a 50# bow means the arrow is about a 14 to 15 grain arrow in mass weight.About the limit I care to shoot.

Yes around here they treat dogwoods as invasive also.Only places I can find them is where they can't mow.
Shoot shafts are just plain tougher than most all split timber shafts.Except good straight grained split hickory.
They take twice as long for me to make most times too.

Black Moshannon:
Oh forgot to mention my rose shafts are at 700-750 with a 190-200 grain broadhead and fletched. I think there around 550 grains just by themselves
