  • The Arrow Shafts Is Pseudosasa Japonica Or Commonly Called Japanese Arrow Bamboo
    The Japanese Arrow By Godai Katsunaga Intorduction The Ya, or arrow of Japan and was between 34 and 38 inches in length, made of fire hardened bamboo shafts and had a steel arrow head., During this period and earlier arrows used in combat were often marked to identify who owned them, this allowed samurai to get the proper credit for killing an opponent. Period Construction The bamboo used for the arrow shafts is Pseudosasa japonica or commonly called Japanese arrow bamboo. This bamboo grows in slender culms that are packed tightly together, forming a dense hedge, with large, dark green foliage. It is a tough and versatile bamboo that will thrive in shade and in sun while growing to about 15 foot tall and was common throughout Japan. Farmers and other workers harvested the bamboo in the early winter when the plants saps were down. To get the required diameter need to make arrows the plants that were between two and three years in age were preferred. After harvesting, the best bamboo was hand selected and ideally stored for about a year for drying, allowing most of the moisture in the plant material to evaporate. Preparation of each shaft included having the nodes shaved off and then softening the shaft by placing it in hot sand prior to straightening it by hand. After the shafts were straightened, they were exposed to high heat to remove any remaining moisture and harden the natural sugars, creating a stronger bond of the natural fibers; this was known as fire hardening. Fletching was done with hawk, eagle, crane or pheasant tail feathers and could be either three or four flights depending on the arrow head that would be mounted.

  • Blazer Vanes How to Remove Arrow Wraps Cleaning Arrow Shafts
    Here are the answers to the most commonly-asked questions about Bohning Archery products, including information about fletching arrows, fletching Blazer vanes, the Bohning Blazer jig, arrow wraps, quiver topics, and more. If you have a question that isn't answered here, please contact us for assistance. Blazer Vanes Do Blazer vanes work with broadheads? Blazer vanes are designed to be used with fixed and mechanical broadheads. They also work very well with field points and can be used for target shooting. How should Blazer vanes be fletched? Blazer vanes should be fletched in the same location as any other vane. We recommend a three-degree right helical, using our Blazer Helix Jig or Helix Tower Fletching Jig ™; or a two-degree offset, using our Pro-Class Fletching Jig. How to Remove Arrow Wraps What are the best ways to remove ArroWraps brand arrow wraps from a shaft? There are different options for removing ArroWraps: • Soak the ArroWrap in hot tap water for 5 minutes, and then peel it off. • Heat the ArroWrap with a hair dryer and then peel it off. • Scrape the ArroWrap off the shaft using Bohning's Stripper tool. Always clean the shaft well after removing an ArroWrap. How can vanes or feathers be replaced without damaging a shaft that has an ArroWrap brand arrow wrap or crest? Unfortunately, vanes or feathers cannot easily be replaced without damaging the crest. Cleaning Arrow Shafts What is the best method for cleaning arrow shafts? Clean arrow shafts by scrubbing with an abrasive pad (such as Scotch Brite®), using water and a good degreasing soap, such as Bohning SSR Arrow Shaft Surface Cleaner.

  • Archery Study Guide HISTORY
    Archery Study Guide HISTORY The origin of archery is unknown; however, archery has been an activity with varied objectives for human beings since the beginning of recorded history. The successful use of archery skills by primitive people literally meant survival for them by providing food. Skilled archers through the ages were able to win battles, and that changed the course of history for many nations. In contemporary society, target archery is considered a challenging sport for the competitor who places value on the pursuit of excellence. The oldest tournament on record is the Ancient Scorton Silver Arrow Contest in Yorkshire, held every year since 1673, excluding the 2 World Wars. The National Archery Association (NAA) is the governing body of target archery, founded in 1879. The National Field Archery Association (NFAA) was established in 1936, sets rules and regulations governing field archery competition. Archery first appeared as a sport in the 1900 Olympics Games in Paris and was held at the Games of 1904, 1908 and 1920. However, international rules had not yet been developed and each host country used its own format. As a result, archery events in these early Olympic Games varied widely. Because of the lack of uniform international rules archery was then dropped from the Olympic Games. Target archery was adopted back into the Olympics in 1972 There are four archery events held at the Olympics: Men's Individual, Women's Individual, Men's Team and Women's Team. Archers used to shoot a double FITA round of 288 total arrows, with the championship decided by the highest total score.
