 I've used heat to straighten cane, but there is no need to heat treat cane. To do so not knowing what you are doing , will take a big chance of making it too brittle or changeing the spine.

Like mullet said, don't worry about it.  Its pretty good stuff un treated..  if it gets crooked on ya, its easy to straighten out

Same price as David Knight's but he offers them spine and weight matched.

What Eddie said. They usually get tempered enough in the straightening process.

If you ever do I will be your best customer.  I like making arrows all right but for $50 a dozen I will glady spend my time doing other things and spend my money with you ;D

 I've been known to send somebody a bundle of 500 for 2 dozen finished arrows, matched and spined.
