Haven't posted in a long time.
Sorry to be redundant if I am. Search option doesnt work well for me.
In March I tore the two bicep ligaments / tendens from the shoulder bone. Surgery 4 weeks ago and now PT. I live in the house now pondering recovery and the future of shooting right handed. (no, wheels will not be an option).. Need a couple of encouragement experiances please.
Now. About the wood shaft issues:
In the last 10 years kids and life has kept archery at a minimum. I haven't payed attention to the prices of shafts as I've had probably over a hundred in my supply that I have been living off of in the last 10yrs.. These 35-40 bucks a dozen is rediculous. Im thinking about going back to raminn as I did have sucess with, though cedar was my favorite. Im used to 50-100 cents a shaft. Im not a tightwad by any means, Im just having a stroke over shafts prices. Where in the He** can I find decent or close to decent bulk wood shating? I had a feeling 20 yrs. ago this would happen but to ignorant to buy a lifetime stock pile.
Fellows thanks for reading my frustrations.

Ray: was the bicep injury in your bow arm or string arm?
String

Im pretty much in the same boat you are(minus the injury). Ive just had to pucker up and pay what things are costing, makes a guy a better shot!
camodadd. I agree. In 3-d I may can stomach 35 a doz. But Im also looking for shats in possible hard times. Im not a survival nut but a couple hundred shafts would kill alot of meat.
I recently swapped to LH due to shoulder issues (birth defects) and couldn't be happier.
