Default Expensice arrows worth the extra $$$?

ok so when i upgraded my bow a few months ago, i bought allll new accessories and arrows...well i got 45 dollar arrows while my dad got 25$ arrows...a few months later...his nocks keep falling out and the paint/color on his arrows is wearing off...and i shoot way more than him...he has gone through all of his arrows because of nocks falling out/veins getting ripped, etc...so my question is...do YOU guys think that it is worth paying the extra money for the good arrows???

you get what you pay for.

i just upgraded arrows this year and am very satisfied with the arrows. not so much that nocks fall off, but they fly flatter and are more accurate than the arrows that i have shot in the past. my groups are tighter than they ever have been.

I switched to Easton AXIS Nano's this year and they are darn tough arrows and worth every penny IMO.

You get what you pay for up to a certain amount I think. I would probably buy better than $25 arrows.
