Greetings from Sinclair Hawkins,

I am trying to track down some information and I am hoping someone here either knows the answer or can point me in a good direction.

I am trying to help some combat archers here started here in the Southern End of the Kingdom, and we are having trouble with one "ingredient" of our Combat Crossbows.  We are making the simple 2x4 stock crossbows to start with and I know that the prod on my current one is made of fiberglass.  I was told it was Sail Batton for sailboats and I have found some fiberglass of the same general dimensions looking online.  My issue is that the thickness is about half of the orange fiberglass battons that my crossbow is made of and thus these prods are REALLY underpowered.  Does anyone know of a good source of this thicker fiberglass prod material or know of someone who might know?  The new legal crossbow ammo is quite a bit heavier than the old ammo so we need the stronger prods to be able to fire at all.

Thank you all for your help in making Atlantia's Armies Stronger....
