Hey beartail,
I've made and use my fair share of foreshafted arrows (cane and phragmite). If you're wanting to use foreshafted arrows for target shooting I recommend securing them (hide glue, tite bond), they tend to get stuck in the target. I normally dont glue them in but I only shoot foreshafted arrows at hay bails, and push them through the target so the foreshaft doesnt get stuck. I also like the option of changing my foreshafts from field points to trade points. For hunting, I wet (saliva works) the insert, it makes the wood swell and they stay in place nice and tight.
Just my opinion, good luck.
Cheers
Thunder
