These are 23/64" Surewood douglas fir shafts. I put a forward taper down to 11/32" in the first 5" and then a back taper down to 5/16" at the nock end. Aerodynamic like a javelin. Weight forward too.

man... folks talk about a bow that's too pretty to hunt with.  What about those arrows?  Those belong up on the fireplace mantle!

I looked just cause I wanted to know what "breast tapered" was.  I'm looking at 4 dozen Surewoods I'm in various stages of completing and thinking I still have a little to learn.

Works of art.  If I was the target of a hunters eye, I would feel honored to to take one of those to the heart.

OK, now what bow do I have to buy to match them?
Darn fine arrows!

Been making so many arrows lately can't remember what spine they are! haha I have that info. out in the shop. They are either 50/55's or 55/60's. They are cut to 29" bop.

"Snaggy"....    :biglaugh:   Thanks for the laugh.

See you guys in Idaho!
