Surewood Shafts

Surewood Shafts builds arrow shafts from doug-fir, specializing in the traditional archery market. Their focus is straightforward: quality wood shafts in spine weights that work for real hunting and competition.

• •Hunter Grade Arrow Shafts - Production-run shafts for hunting archery

• •Custom Tapering Services - Tail tapering from 5/16" down to 1/4" haft diameter

As of 2025, demand for lighter to midweight spine shafts has surged, partly driven by the new Wood Arrow Longbow Division at the Lancaster Classic. Surewood is actively sourcing seasoned logs and working up inventory to fill gaps, with new shafts listed every few days.

They're also expanding custom tapering options. If you need specific haft diameters or tail taper work, you can now add that directly to your order.

Most orders ship within 1-3 weeks. Pre-orders are available—pay upfront and they'll get them to you. A pre-order submission form is available on their site, or email [email protected] to arrange custom work.

"The timing of this happens to align with finally exhausting our supply from the famous Ollalie log, that produced lots and lots of beautiful shafts, mostly 35-40 to 45-50." — Carson Brown

They maintain a Trophy Room showcasing what their shafts have done in the field, and publish extensive resources including spine selection guides, mass weight charts, and wood arrow making tutorials. You'll also find their custom arrow makers directory and information on why doug-fir works for traditional archery.

Founded and run by Carson Brown, Surewood is built around traditional archery—not the compound market. That focus shows in every product line and every decision they make.
