Title: Bamboo Arrows
Post by: Chimaster on August 19, 2011, 11:01:00 AM
I just got back from the Michigan Longbow Shoot, and talked with Joe Neat from Ohio. I bought some bamboo arrows from him last year and just love them. I shot a real nice buck in Wisconsin with them and just love them. Like I said in past posts the things shoot great. And I can shoot them off all my bow's from 44lbs-57lbs., with no worries about spine. I'd like to hear from anyone with any experience with these bamboo arrows. I hope to put one through a buffalo this year.

Good luck with your buffalo.

I don't know if it's the boo/cane's naturally tapered shape, or it's make-up, but I've noticed better speeds over wood dowelled arrows with this type material. Great arrow material in my opinion........Art

I'll attest to what Art says. I learned what I know about cane arrows from Art! d;^)  Cane/bamboo does make excellent arrows and they are tough as nails and fly great!!!

Does anyone know of some cane arrow building sites? I have a good selection of stone points i have been wanting to put on some cane arrows to hog hunt with.

Do you have contact info for Joe Neat, or someone selling Boo arrows or shafts? I've been wanting to try them.

Gotta wear the loincloth to hunt buff, Gary.  Don't wear the horn-hat though or he might mistake you for another bull....or worse yet, a cow...  :eek:
