I will respond to one of the posts,against my better judgement.
To increase spine weight in an arrow to the point of extreme foc in a wood arrow the weight of arrow then overrides the foc. You can not get the same level of foc in a wood arrow as carbon.....not possible. Kendric you just made your self look real silly I suggest when grown ups talk just sit and watch/listen.
Cheers KIM

I must add you said before I miss the point but when I have gone to the shoots around the country and shared a fire with the archers or Australia the feedback I have got is that perhaps you should spend more time having a shot with others and less time reading books if you want an idea of what TRADITIONAL ARCHERY is in this country.
Kim, you are trying to make a virtue of ignorance. It belittles you more than anything I can say.

Have the courage to argue your beliefs with conviction, but the humility to accept that you may be wrong.

Dennis - you've hit the nail on the head there. :clap:

But it is aimed at the wrong person. It applies so well to you and your comments it's poetically ironic.
