Straightening and re-straightening wooden arrows is part and parcel of traditional archery. If you are shooting wood then learning to straighten them is essential. Even the shafts that are bought new from any supplier usually need to be straightened as they go from one environment/climate to another. There is a wide range of tools for straightening wood shafts but a rub with the round side of a spoon on the opposite side of the bend usually does the trick for me. Occasionally a careful blast with a heat gun is needed to sort out a stubborn bend. I know people who get great results using the ACE Roll-R-Straight available from 3 Rivers Archery ($28).
