What Shafts do You like to hunt with mostly?
Please add the name of your shafts.
Ash
Sorry I missed bamboo & river cain... mark as wood.
Heavy cedar.
Cedar for targets, douglas fir or ash for hunting.
I use gamegetter II's, 2115's and 2016's. The 2016's I have just recently started using. Fly very good!
I shoot carbon shafts. I have hunted with wood, fiber glass, aluminum and carbon. I like to do alot of stump shooting and nothing has ever held up like the carbons for me. The only problem with the carbons is I can't use them as an excuse if I miss. I would do that occasionally with the woodys.

voted wood per your instructions, but really like and use bamboo.
55-60# Port Oxford Cedar for my 62" longbow, here in Italy no other woddies are available, and 2118 Legacy Easton shaft for my 55# TD recurve .
Ciao
I use aluminum
seriously front loaded carbons GT 5575 9.2 gram per inch 30" long with 400 grains in the head and right behind it.Total 680 grains out of a 63# longbow. just shy of 11 grains per pound of draw weight still giving me about 176fps. By the way 175fps is 120 mph just to let you know.I really sleepy right know but my calculations put that at about 50f/p KE. I think that makes this an every critter in North America bow and arrow combination.
I just got my hands on some tapered Cedar from Kustom King, nicest shafts I have ever bought, fly perfect.
Arrow Dynamics Traditional Carbons
Definitely wood anything else is a faux arrow.
;)
Jack
Hickory, Chundoo, Poplar, Bamboo, and River Cane.

Carbon Express...may try some Beman or Easton carbons shortly...but CE's are a no-lose proposition...
5/16 ramin and 11/32 poplar...
I don't discriminate,wood,alum & carbon. The only one I don't like to have is (no arrow) :D
