Since the beginning of archery as a sport in America, archers have looked to easily obtained, quality wooden dowels as a source for arrow shafts. Times have changed, and while the quality of dowels has gone down, their use by beginning and do-it-yourself archers has never been higher. The Dowel Arrow Handbook is for those who wish to make their own arrows for target archery and hunting, while showing how to build arrows that are not only accurate, but safe to use.
