Default help me get set up with some arrows...please :)

i posted this up right after last season, but I can't use the search feature on this sight for some reason.
I am shooting a Matthews XT set at 70 pounds with a 29" draw length.

I want to shoot rage 2 blades this year. I want to try a mechanical, and really only wanted to try because of the slip blades.
I will only be hunting whitetail this year. I have a bitzneberger so I will fletch the arrows myself. Price isn't too important of a factor..I manage to scrape up enouugh when it comes hunting season

Thanks alot everybody

Look at some Easton ACCs. Probably a 3-60 or 3-71.

gold tip pro hunter 7595 or 5575. personally im using the 5575 with my 70 (a bit higher at max though) and they are fine, with no bare shaft tuning problems. so maybe go for them, im using an 85 gr tip though which will make them stiffer dynamically. If you are using a heavier tip or just want a generally weighty arrow go for the 7595.

they have pretty high tolerances in weight and straightness so they should see you alright. they are roughly $100 p/Doz

I am using a Trophy Ridge Drop Zone also, should I just stick with the blazers or is there something new that I should try out? there is a local shop that sells gold tips as a bare shaft..and that is what I was looking for. I want to put them together myself so I know how it was down and that the ends are square and exactly the same length and all that good stuff. thanks for the ideas guys.

I had looked at the full metal jackets and the gold tips..I really want to shoot a light arrow.
