Title: Buying Hunting Arrows
Post by: Robert E. Leet on February 04, 2010, 02:30:01 am

I know most of you make your own arrows, and I do as well, but I'm not nearly as good as you guys.  :-[  So my question is:

Those of you that purchase hunting arrows; What type do you buy?  Where do you buy them?  Is it possible to order just 1,3, or 6?  Or do I have to buy a dozen?


Thanks for all your help.



P.S.  I know this isn't really primitive, but I don't know where else to go.

3 R's will sell their carbons by the 1/2 doz.

I've seen Aluminums and woodies on Ebay in the "6-pak", and carbons in 3 packs.

Just recieved a doz. Carbon "Trad only" from 3 R's. They're for my wheelie bare bow.
Seem alright, nothing to get excited about though. Tape crown and all. They'll probably last for years since it's my "rarely shot" bow. They look,,,, tacky(?) to me. But they shoot well enough.

Found a good place to buy.  I don't think I'm supposed to link so I'll just give the name.  It's called "all wood arrows."  They do custom orders in any number, and can install blunts, broadheads, and target points.  The arrows look pretty nice so I ordered a 3 with broadheads and 3 with target points.  Thanks for all your help.

If your practice arrows shoot well for you and your bow, put a broadhead on it and it is a hunting arrow.
