this arrow looks great, which Material is that Point?
point material is slate stone, in German: ‘Schiefer’
What does boo mean, I’m french and I can’t find a translation ?
Very beautiful arrows.
Boo is short for bamboo.
In this case that boo was a tomato stick in his former life.
Since 6 years or so I harvest my arrow blancs in my garden.
I get 200-300 shafts every year. That boo is Japanese arrow bamboo (pseudosasa japonica).
You can easily straighten the blancs with heat.
