It looks like you are alone with your bow. I have no knowledge of different woods. But some light and flexible should be good... I guess you knew that already. If you are not going to make the points out of flint stone you could forge them. In my experience it's not too hard to learn if you have the tools.

I have a few frinds who do. They use cedar arrows with glue on metal heads for hunting.

I remember someone making a copper bladed knife with a bone handle, but no, I can't remember who it was.
