So, following requests from some listeners I am focusing this and the next podcast on arrow making, giving my thoughts and starting the breakdown of what I consider important with arrow making. You might find this article i wrote several years ago useful starting point too https://offthearrowshelf.com/2015/11/13/wooden-arrows-shafts-a-few-thoughts-before-you-buy/
I make mention of a couple of other podcasts and wanted to include the details here. Also if anyone has come across any studies on the use of different woods in arrows i would love to hear about it.
Check out The Push technical guys I was talking about was Cody and the Trad lab podcasts. https://www.thetradlab.com/copy-of-tradlab-studies
I mentioned a review of the Batwing feathers from Gateway I wrote and here is the link https://offthearrowshelf.com/2019/02/19/equipment-review-batwing-feather-fletchings/ also to Gateway themselves (https://www.gatewayfeathers.com/
A good thing to buy is a grain scale to weigh you arrow components, I use a digital grain scale.
Top tip to remember your arrows are a disposable asset so accept they are disposable asset, they will wear out, break or get lost.
As always, any questions or thoughts let me know.
Stay safe, stay well and thanks for listening.
