Title: Back to basics!!!!
Post by: mellonhead on March 09, 2014, 01:46:00 PM
It all started when I bought a couple Easton FMJ's to try out of my Hoyt Buffalo.  I got them to bare shaft perfectly.  They are like laser beams out of the Buffalo.  Then it happened!  I had this huge itch to go back to basics.  I went out and got myself a used Robertson longbow and ordered up some Douglas Fir shafts.  That Buffalo has been hanging on a hook in the basement ever since and I am actually concidering selling it to fund a new Hill or Northern Mist bow.

The basics were put back there for a reason! Go for it.

Just spent an hour going through a set of PO Cedars.  Patched up a few gouges with some plastic wood.  Gave them all a coat of wipe on poly. Weighed them and marked the weights so I can match them in sets of 3.

There is something about a well shot wood arrow.
