Wooden arrows; what's your magic bullet?

[Captainkirk]

What's your 'magic bullet' recipe for building a good wooden arrow? Type of wood, fletching, nocks, points and so on?
You do 'em up fancy or go Spartan on the fit and finish?
Build your own or buy 'em pre-made?
You have a 'checklist' of things you do or just wing it?

Not doing it anymore and judging from the replies it would appear that not many others are.

This is what I do , just stain and wipe on poly .
I like the pink because it is easier to find my arrows when I fire a warning shot .

[Captainkirk]

So most of you are using carbons, then?

Graps, nice arrows. Cedar?

[Graps]

I won't have a carbon arrow in my house .

Besides, takes a REAL man to shoot pink arrows.

Once again I'm with Graps. So far, only wood. Cedar shafts. Shoot anywhere between 135gr to 175 gr glue on tips (various heads). 5-51/2 shield cut feathers. No reason. just like em. Most of my shots are 15 yds or less.

Well, that makes three of us.

This is getting scary. Three of us agree.
