I see this is your first post, welcome to TG.
If your talking carbon arrows Easton and Beman are both made here. I'm sure there's more.
Sometimes a manufacturer will have a cheaper line of arrows made overseas so you'll have to lookout for that.

Most wood shafts are made here.  That's all I know, heavy tapered wood arrows.

If I was buying for the first time and made in USA is a priority I would check with our sponsors here on TradGang. I am pretty sure if you asked they could tell you.  Stuff off of the big internet retailer or the big auction site I wouldn't trust as being USA made. Just because it says made in USA that doesn't mean the product is 100% made here. Woods and aluminums are easy to find USA made. Carbons, because of our believe it or not EPA rules, are made in Mexico or Asia for the most part.

Easton,  beman and I believe black eagle too but not sure. As stated above lots of wood to choose from if you want to go that route

Surewood Douglas Firs and Easton aluminums. Made here since about forever.

You mean to tell me that other people make arrows now? What else would you need?  :dunno:

Surewood Douglas Fir, if it got any better I wouldn't deserve it.

Sage,

I'm with you - I don't buy anything made in Red China if I can avoid it.  Money talks.  As for arrows I buy finished arrow right now.  I get mine for either AllWoodArrows.com or 3-RiversArchery.

Stick a Big One.

To my knowledge black Eagle is made in Asia somewhere. At least that is what I have read before I can't confirm it so that tells me a lot. I think when you look all over a website and you cant find where they're made it's a pretty good guess! Some Easton and Beman like the axis are made in USA. Traditional Only shafts at 3Rivers are USA made by Easton. Arrow Dynamics are USA as well.
