In the Whitsundays area of qld you can't get anything of quality here. I usually use addey archery but I'm sure their prices have gone up.

I have POC shafts, nocks and points but they are all 50# - 55# and up, and mainly 23/64, which probably won't suit.

I just noticed the same thing.
- slayer in User Control Panel - Board Preferences - then 3rd option down "allows users to send you private messages" - place the bullet in the yes. Hope this helps.

Hey mate, I've been buying my wood shafts from surewood shafts in the states for a couple years now. They're very reasonably priced (including postage) and really great to deal with. They only do douglas fir. Here's the site if you're interested:

And I buy most of my bits and bobs from Mark at tradbits:

Lots of good places local and overseas though, I'm sure you'll get lots of good recommendations.
