Good day, I was wondering who might make the best wooden arrows. I'm looking for heavy arrows to shoot out of my 70lbs longbow. I was thinking DF, any suggestion on wood choices and on somebody who is reliable, that make great arrows?
Thank you.
Douglas fir is good and ash is too.
Contact Magnus on this site.
x2 on Magnus. and x2 on the Douglas Firs. I bought mine straight from Surewwood and had them sent to Magnus.
Yup, that Magnus dude makes some beauties...
Thank you guy, that is great!
X3 on Magnus got mine and they are beauties.
There are a ton of excellent wood arrow crafters out there. I have switched over to all douglas fir shafts myself.
Elite Arrows makes the best wood arrows I know of , I like good old cedar for wood choice. All around cedar is hard to beat .
I buy Surewood shafts 10 dozen at a time. They have all been carbon straight right out of the pile.
Another shameless plug for both Surewood's Douglas Fir and Magnus' arrows. Hard to go wrong supporting TG sponsors.
I love douglas fir and I get mine from Tim @ Braveheart ... great fella to do business with .
But my arrowmaker of choice ifI am not making them myself is Ted Fry at Raptor . Always well made and staight... again a great fella to do business with and good guy to boot
I really like the Douglas Fir shafts from Surewood. They are great guys to deal with and I have not had a bad shaft ever.
Check out David Lawson, Snag, to us here. He's in Oregon and makes an incredibly beautiful arrow from Surewoods.
Bill Stroupe, from North Carplina....top shelf!!!worth every cent!!!!!!!!he is a gang member.. :)
Snag is a sponsor and the new standard!!

I was just on Snags website and his arrows sure look great! I believe my next order is going there. God bless you all, Steve
Snag's contacted me and he offered me something I can't pass... So we'll see, but so far it is in his hands!!
Thank you for all the good suggestions, look like it is in between Snag and Magnus...
