The Advantage of Port Orford Cedar

There are two main reasons many archers still choose wooden arrows despite the availability of modern synthetics: a genuine passion for natural materials and the competition rules of many traditional classes. Especially in longbow divisions, wooden arrows are often mandatory – and cedar shafts are the clear top choice. They remain straight for a long time, offer quick stabilization in flight, and provide a warm, traditional shooting experience that carbon cannot replicate.

Perfect For

• Traditional archers seeking natural, authentic arrow material
• Longbow shooters needing tournament-approved wooden arrows
• Beginners wanting reliable and easy-to-work shafts
• Experienced archers who value matched, premium-grade quality

Beginner’s Tip

A 30-inch shaft is ideal for most archers and offers excellent value. Make sure to select a spine rating that matches your bow’s draw weight to achieve optimal flight stability and durability.

Why Choose the 30" Premium Cedar Shaft?

These shafts combine craftsmanship, tradition and performance. Each one is carefully spined, inspected and matched to ensure consistent results. The balance of flexibility and strength is precisely why Port Orford Cedar has remained a favorite among seasoned traditional archers – a recommendation strongly supported by Henry Bodnik.
