Bamboo arrow questions

By

I finally received my bamboo arrow shafts today and I am trying to figure out how to make it all work.

I ordered 33" shafts but they sent me 38" so easy enough to cut them down but then comes the question of self nock or glue on. Which one would you recommend?

And how about the tips. The shafts for the most part are a consistent 5/16" on the thick end. Glue on would be the easiest but I have read about people using screw in tips but I must be missing something as I am having trouble picturing it. I've sacrificed a few arrow shafts already trying to drill out the end to fit the diameter of the inner shaft before the threads. I cant get a consistent measurement as I no longer have a micrometer. It keeps breaking and I just need some help please.

Shibuya vs Axcel vs other top end sights?

If there's any other top end sights you think are better, let me know. I want this to be the first and last sight that i ever buy, and price doesn't really matter. Another question, on the Shibuya there's an option for "Single mount" and "Double mount." What do those mean? And lastly, is the sight aperture on either of the sights suitable, or is there better after-market apertures that are better? I'm sort of thinking that is something I should be buying from my local shop so i can actually te...

Are my new arrows overspined?

By
Are 400 spine, 27" arrows overspined for 30 pound draw weight? The guy just picked the arrows, cut them and gave them to me. my old arrows were 500 spine, 32" so when I said that they looked overspined, he just shrugged and said "the chart says they're ok". Can anyone confirm my doubts? submitted by /u/Astaziel [link] [comments] from newest submissions : Archery https://ift.tt/3pmjVLf via
