What bamboo shafts should I buy online?

If you could fill the void in the center of the cane it would stiffen the spine. Adding only to each end would only add a slight amount of physical weight and if anything decrease the effective spine.
 If the arrows Clint gave you are cedar, they are rot resistant and even though the feathers rot off and the point rusted the shaft is probably still good after it is dried and straightened if needed. Most any other shafting would be rotted too or at least made so they shouldn't be reused or shot.

Yeah not rot at all! feathers came off of course, tip rusted and was all round dirty and bent the slightest bit but other than that it was perfect!

[Pat B]

Well, let it dry for a while then give it a good bend test in all directions before making a new arrow with it.

How much does a finished  shaft weigh

[Pat B]

My finished arrows are between 500gr and 600gr.

Deerhunter,
The solution is two-fold:  a.  Don't shoot the grass - b. Try the weed whacker brush knot that was up a couple weeks ago !  Also, a garden rake to help find the arrows under the grass! !  I do have to reweigh my arrows as I shorten some, but I think they will hit 10 gpp.  I do like a heavier arrow for hunting, 500 gr plus off my 45# - 50# bows. 

Take care with the back injury and do keep us posted!  Those are serious, and get at least one second opinion!  I crashed on a jump in '78, and the doctor promised me a permanently sore back! He was right!  But our battalion surgeon, an orthopedic specialist, told me not to get cut on until it was a last resort.
