how to make a boffer polearm?

FYI if you are going to make "practice" weapons to donate before you make your "final" polearm, make claws. Not only is Knight Realms trying to get away from regular boffer weapons, but there's always a shortage of claws.

THANKS A LOT GUYS! that actually helps a lot and i'll check out the hardware store down my street after work 2day!

hey cody.  i've been using polearms to fight for a few years now and i've found the best materials to be fiberglass core and kite tape.  fiberglass is a lot lighter than pvc which makes the weapon easier to lug around all day.  kite tape is also a LOT lighter than duck tape, which makes for a very very lightweight weapon overall.  i have never had any problems with whipping with my polearm, probably because the kite tape is so light that it isn't top heavy.

thank u nym that helps a lot. so fiberglass is the way 2 go. i'll check that n pvc out
