Been thinking of going to a heavier arrow for my lighter # bow.

Try "Pennwoods" ... I think they are in Pa.
I know they carry ash...
Hope this helps.

Raptor's a sponsor here, and has Douglas Fir, Ash and Birch.  Good shafts from good folks!

Allegheny Mountain Arrow Woods website address is  www.arrowwoods.com. (http://www.arrowwoods.com.)  I've bought birch and ash shafts from them several times and have been pleased with the quality and service.

Checked  'em all out and Allegheny was cheaper by far. Got 2 Doz. Tappered Ash for $74  shipped.   :clapper:

You'll love the tapered ash, I have never shot a better arrow in terms of flight and durability.
 Also I have had no probs getting them straight by hand in less than 2 minutes.

If someone is located in Europe, then he/she might trust in the shafts from Jürgen Arnold at  www.whitewood.de (http://www.whitewood.de)

He has got Ash, Birch, Larch, Pine and maybe some other stuff.
I had very tight spine and weight tolerances. This, in combination with good initial straightness and smoothness, has convinced me that I've finally found my source for shafts.

After 20yrs. POC I switched to Birch shafts in general, but I have some Larch also. Especially for my ELB battleshafts. They have a good weight in them and do fly just great.
