A quick look around showed an abundance of hardwood materials in the form of trees from which quality shafts could be made. Initially the shafts were made from first quality lumber purchased from local mills. Sometimes the shafts were straight, sometimes not. To correct the "sometimes not", we purchased a small sawmill and began selecting logs from local loggers, even at times going into the forests (oh, how we dislike going into the woods) and selecting trees still standing. We take pride in what we do. We have fun producing fine quality arrow shafts and arrows for traditional archers. We are traditional archers.

Over the years we have updated our equipment and continued to look for the best arrow shaft material available.  We have experimented with dozens of woods, both domestic and exotic and assorted processes for preparing and manufacturing material and shafts. Our goal is to provide you with the best wood arrow shafts possible for your hunting adventures.

All shafts are checked for defects before shipping. However, hardwood shafts are neither aluminum or carbon. They may not stay straight when subjected to changes in humidity prior to finishing. However, with proper care and a good finish, they make excellent arrows. They are tough. Try to break them. You will find --- for the first time ---- that you will be purchasing replacement feathers. We have many satisfied customers, and we would like you to join them. Remember, Pope and Young used hardwood shafts.

Thanks for your interest - hope to talk to you soon!
