Which arrow woods are least prone to warpage/whipping?
Hey Guys

I was wondering if you guys know which is the best wood to use when making arrows, that are least prone to warping/whipping?

As most of you know, I'm using 5/16 ash arrows with a 30/35# spine, some of them have kept their straightness, but a few of them are a little bent and a few others are strangely snaked, where they are straight, the have a slight bend, then another slight bend in the opposite way and then straighten again? (wth?)

I've been contemplating on poplar or POC shafts, but I'm not too sure if any other woods out there are better or worse, and so I thought I'd ask you guys

Thank you guys in advance as any info/advice is greatly appreciated

Willie
