Does anyone here shoot the heat tempered bamboo shafts?  What is the weight compared to other woods?  How about diameters and durability?

Thanks

Shoot as much weight as you can with accuracy

I shot some boo shafts I made from planting stakes.
They're heavier than spruce or fir.
Very tough.

I was looking at the ones sold by vendors on here.

Mine are skinny and slightly lighter than cedar. These are 45/50 spine.

I prefer cane over anything else.  My bows don't even work on spine, they work more off weight/FOC% and it's great for both, being naturally tapered.  Takes a lot of work to make an arrow for my bows but they end up nigh on indestructible.
