Good priced arrows???

I am planning on getting an AFB real soon....

Obviously, I will be needing some arrows to go with it. However, I am on a rather tight budget just now, what with Xmas fast approaching.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a well priced supplier of wooden arrows??

Alternatively, are wooden arrows any more difficult to put together that normal recurve ones???

Thanks

Hi there - you could always ask me to make them for you You also get a discount in my shop as a member of this forum. Bear in mind that like any handcrafted item, wooden arrows take time, effort and skill to make and match to your bow and we fletchers often work for less than the minimum wage when everything is taken into account so margins are very slim. Let me know what you need and I may be able to give you a discount or let you have some I've already made up that I have in stock if they match your needs.

Jason

I can highly recommend Dennis at Goldflight Archery, he is a fantastic supplier of shafts, at a great price and he takes the time to straighten for you (not had a bad shaft out of Dennis in some 20 DZN!!!!)

he has a website, and does made to measure arrows as well as all the usual parts to make your own (he will even help you select the spine required as well - he sure got my ones on spec) and some other good products
