A qustion about Tonkin Cane Shafts
« on: January 12, 2011, 10:58:04 am »
One day my grandpa took me to my house so I could get ready to go fox hunting with a guy from my church.He saw my Tonkin Cane arrows laying on my bed and he said I need to keep them out of the sun light and keep them flat but i have them flat.he said if I dont they will bend back(I got them pre straitend). Is he right do I need to keep them out of the sun light? If anyone knows  please tell me.    Thanks Kolton God Bless

I don't know for sure but I'd say that sun light won't effect Tonkin arrows but the heat from the sun can heat them(and other arrow materials and bows) which could cause them to return back to the unstraightened state.

 Kolton;

Won't hurt a thing to leave them in sun light. It will actually turn them a nice golden brown.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
