White willow bundles and bolts
25 March 2025
Willow is sold by weight. A traditional Somerset bundle (or bolt) measures 1ft in diameter and 3ft 1″ to 3ft 2″ in circumference around the butt (bottom) end. The table below details the weight of white willow in a half or whole bundle.
NOTE: If you normally buy white willow in a bundle (or bolt) and require 4ft length rods, simply select 4ft and then 7kg.
