8ptbuckpa Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 just wondering what arrows you guys use? why those over the other brands? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michiganbowhunter_SQ2 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Gold tip XT hunters ...thats just what I chose, I have also shot eastons and carbon express, both make great arrows, but I got a good deal on the gold tips (on here actually). I have been thinking of switching back to the easton axis arrows, but I doubt I wll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okiedog Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Gold Tips here. Why? Beacuse I got like 3 dozen of them:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubie Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Easton Super Slams. Why? Because I've always used Easton aluminum arrows of one type or another, and thats just what I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowonly Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 What sold me on the Carbon Express is the advertisement where they shoot them into a cinder block and they don't splinter. The crossweave design is what got me. Love them. They are Terminator Lites 6075. Have actually had an experience where I made a bad shot at my 3d target and hit the metal rod in the leg of the target. Damaged the field tip but no damage to the arrow.

PotashRLS Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Easton Super Slams. Why? Because I've always used Easton aluminum arrows of one type or another, and thats just what I like. I 2nd that. Why fix what isn't broken. Carbons aren't heavy enough for my liking anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoytbowhunter Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Right now I'm shooting beman ICS'S but planing to switch to Easton FMJ'S in the near future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 I am still shooting Easton gamegetters and the old autumn-orange XX-75 shafts many from way back in the 70's. They still shoot well and kill deer. Back then, you could build a dozen arrows real cheap, so I was an arrow-building maniac for a few years. I accumulated a lifetime supply and I haven't bought arrows or shafting in decades. Doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimPic Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Carbon Express Heritage 150's--they weigh 10gr/inch and I like those heavy weights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I voted Easton since I still shoot aluminums.It's all I've ever owned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Need a choice for other. I shoot cabelas carbon sst's here. I agree. I shoot the Basspro's Redhead Supremes. If I was tourney shooting I'd probably shoot something else. But since there are no dots on deer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdvantageTimberLou Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Ever since I could pull back a bow, the shaft has always said Easton and always will! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dg Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 I like GT XT Hunters. I've had the same dozen for about 2 years. The price is right and they hit where I'm aiming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowtech_archer07 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Used to shoot Beman, but that the the Easton Axis St's that I have shoot just as well and are cheaper than the Beman's that I was shooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M00N Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 I used to shoot Easton XX75 Camo Hunter arrows, but switched last year to GoldTip XT Hunters. I'm quite impressed and happy with their performance. I'm using them again this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNTINGMAN Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 I shoot carbon express Maxima hunter,i wanted to try the weight forward design and it has proven itself to be a very acurate shaft when matched with blazer veins.

Tecumseh Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 Carbon Express 300'S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 I've shot the Easton Aluminum Arrows, Carbon Force Predator Arrows, and Carbon Express Maxima Hunters and regular Maxima's. I've switched between carbon force and Carbon Express and always end up going back to Carbon Express. I go through a ton of arrows, but really its my own fault. Playing dumb games like shooting through washers, ball bearing, pvc pipe, and stuff like that. I've robin hooded 7 from sighting in my bow. Its no big deal to me I guess. If my Maxima's don't make it through the summer I'll probabl be shooting some Beman Team Realtree MFX arrows this fall just to try something new. So far the Carbon Express and Carbon Force arrows are the best I've used. They both are really tough and I have shot them through a lot of stuff. At the shop we have a Steel sheet of metal about a 1/4 of and inch thick with holes cut in it that you have to shoot through. Yes I have missed and hit the metal, but my shot the Maxima Hunters came out clean without a scratch on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
