Original question which is the better and harder hitter. Hitting power is a function of arrow weight, speed and arrow flight doesn't matter
what the material is. As for pure toughness I would say Tonkin boo followed by cane.

I tend to think the smaller diameter of the tonkin cane gives more penetration.. JMO..

And its easier to taper for a point and requires no plugging :)

I Love boo and cain arrows, i just dont enjoy making them. well the 1st 2 or 3 are fun to make than its a long teddies job. but it pays off in the long run.  I remember a few months ago i shot the practice range well into miller time with a cain arrow, i musta smacked 10 trees or more. and my arrow made it!
 Only problem i have with my cain arrows is keeping the Field points glued on. they like to pull off in the 3d targets. very frustrating...

thats why if you look at high tech carbon arrows like the Easton Axis they are tiny
