What Brand of Arrows do you shoot?

[clfergus]

Just curious who is shooting the different brands. I have always shot Gold Tip but need some new arrows this year and was curious.

 

[KEHO]

I go with a middle of the road priced PSE Radial X Weave STL Hunter. I've been happy with their performance so far.

 

[csmith]

I've been shooting Beemans ICS hunters for 10+ years now and have never had a problem.

 

[Ryninger]

What kind shooting do you do? For a hunting arrow I have yet to find anything I like better than Easton Full Metal Jackets (FMJ's).

 

[Kernal1984]

I have always shot Easton aluminum until last year and i finally jumped on the carbon train with some Easton axis and have no complaints.

 

[trapperDave]

beamns, goldtips, eastons and woodies..........all "made" by me

 

[Hookeye]

I run GT's due to their weighting system (adjust spine).

 

[DEC]

Victory V1. Most consistent spine in the business.

 

[Mike H]

GT Pro Hunter 55/75

 

[gdog243]

Easton ACC Alu and carbon best of both worlds

 

[selinoid44]

Carbon Express Mayhems

Same here. Been shooting them with imitation barred feathers since 2000. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

 

[Shootin'IN]

Carbon Express because I loose almost as many as I shoot.
I normally buy them at the end of the season they are a little cheaper then.

 

[trailrider]

Carbon express maxima hunters for me. My buddy switched to easton flatliners this year and likes them.

Someone recommended Easton FMJ to me today. I took a look at some and fit and finish are nicer than my gold tips. I also like the blazer vanes vs flimsy vanetecs.

Is the advantage of smaller diameter arrow simply penetration?

 

[Ryninger]

Better penetration, and less influence from cross winds...

What rest are you using? Blazers/vanes and whisker biscuits aren't the best combo, but fine off prongs or a drop away.

If you decide to go with Blazers. One day when I was bored at the shop we fletched up a dozen arrows with blazers using the helical jig. We were pleased with their performance. If I were going to us Blazers, that is how I would have them fletched... That being said my rig is hunting first, target/3D second. I use a whisker biscuit and offset feathers with my FMJ's.

What shop do you work at?

How about weight? I shoot 27 inch mauler at 62lbs. Would the 400 FMJ be the right one for me.
