Manny, how do you make your heavy hunting arrows? You seem to have a wide variety of different weight on hand- do you use ramin or somehting else?

Kegan, I have 600 RAMIN dowels and about 100 DUG FIR 85 # spined shafts left, those with 190gr broadheads and left about 29-30" long come out in the mid 800gr range.

the alluminum ones are 2117's filled with 1/4" tubing, than you can play with all kinds of weight up front with those

2 of them are IPE arrows that RICK from Paleoplanet send me, those are over 950gr

Ahhh. Thanks :). Are the ramin dowels about 85# then too?

And where did you get them?

mostly between 90 to 100 # spine, I either sand them down to get the spine I want, or leave them long to keep the weight up

Ho yeah, got them from ALAS, 100 bucks for 600 dowels, ...just now I was sorting some to make arrows for a bow I'm finishing, 5 rejects out of more than 40 spined, that's a great value for the money  ;D

Thanks Manny. I've been using birch for a while. Most of them are pretty good, but there are some really crooked ones. They weigh in (finished at a 27" draw) about 650 grains with a 125 gr point and spine around 75#-100#.
