Aaah, I normally cheat on arrows, and buy the shafts ready-spined for my bows. Normally these are Chris Boynton pine. Depending on the strength/weight of the bow, you have quite a lot of choice. Many arrows found on the Mary Rose were oak ......
Yeah, Snufkin, 62" is quite short for a 55lb longbow, so I can appreciate the stress involved !
