Default Let's see your 3D arrows.........

Get em out!!!

So I'm sitting down here in the man cave right now sipping on my drink, and waiting on glue to dry on my new 3D arrows. I wanna see what you guys plan to shoot this year outdoors. I'll post some pics of mine in a few minutes as soon as the glue is dry.

So let's see them, and list the specs/components as well.

If you can visualize:
Carbon Express CXL SS 350's w/ 90gr points and easton G-nocks and uni bushings. Will be fletched with 2 black and 1 blue Flex Fletch 225 sheild cut vanes. They do look really pretty in my mind.

Default RE: Let's see your 3D arrows.........

I just recieved 2x dozen of these today and I've got a 100 pack of the nocks, as well as an extra 2x dozen pins to last me for the season.

Goldtip Pro 22's
Roughly 29" (maybe shorter, haven't cut them yet)
Roughly 315-320 grains (haven't cut them yet)
Goldtip Pin Nocks
Goldtip 80 grain glue ins
2.12" Flex Fletch

I'm still waiting on those draw length mods, and hopefully will have them on Friday. Once I have these I can cut the arrows......the plan is to cut them exactly 1/4" in front of the blade on my rest.

Yes.......as I've said before I'm comfortable being that guy. [8D] You see everyone around here is using the black vanes as well, so this year I decided to step it up a notch. These ones are clear........

If goldtip had black nocks in stock, I'd have those too, but they are out of stock and don't plan to make anymore for a while. I decided the ruby red would have to do......I've got a 100 pack of them to last me this season.

I really like the way those clear vanes look. How much do they weigh a piece?

Here are my new 3D arrows. I am getting orange or black nocks instead of the yellow ones on there. I have not been extending my sight all the way out and my groups have gotten significantly better.

Hey RJ......do they make those in colors? I'd like to get my FOC up even more....and that would help. They weigh less than 1/2 of what I'm using.
