Title: Arrow Shaft Spine Weight Question...
Post by: mcgroundstalker on July 10, 2017, 12:52:00 PM
Just got some "new-to-me" full length (32") feathered arrow shafts marked... GRAPHLEX XT-18-8.

What spine weight would they be? Have they any collector value? What size converta insert would fit?

Thank You So Much!

Shafts have a fake wood grain and printing is in black......

According to a Graflex chart I have, they're about equivalent to a 2217 aluminum shaft.  Specifically, it says the spine is 65-69 at a 28 inch arrow length/draw.

They're a decent fiberglass shaft.  No particular collector value that I know of.  If they were mine, I'd shoot them.
