Another vote for Surewood Shafts. I also find a lot of enjoyment from making my own arrows. If at all possible for you I recommend getting a fletching jig and giving it a shot!

I usually purchase my POC from North American Specialty Gear.  One reason is that it's just a short drive from my house, but above that, if you tell them exactly what you want in spine and weight they will put the order together for you.

I have not tried shurwood shafts, but I'm going to try a dozen sometime after the new year.

I also spin a few of my own shafts, but I bet I'd have to run a couple hundred shafts to get a set matched the way RMSG does it.

Rocky Mt Specialty Gear. Weighed and spined to close tolerances, and good folks to deal with.

I used to have a regular source, but he got out of the business. Now, I generally buy arrows at some of the various shots I attend. Basically, if they look good and shoot good, I just buy them on the spot. I have built a few myself, but mine don't look nearly as good as most of what I see on here. Maybe the cresting machine I'm getting for Christmas will help me improve my skills.

i agree with the recommendations for wood shafts, but notice there haven't been many suggestions for fully built arrows. I'd have said Wilderness Custom Arrows (they're the last set I bought before getting the tools and making my own), but David's moving on to other interests.
I have no doubt Elite arrows will provide a fine set. Raptor Archery would be another option. There are many others, just can't think of them offhand.
I'll bet there are several folks here who can build you a fine set that don't have an actual business set up, too.

Raptor Archery. I still shoot some of the arrows I got from Ted back in the early 1990's. I really like fir and the Rogue River Cedar when it was available. I also like the Raptor Cut feathers out of my self bow's.
