You can also use an adjustable weightinsert that allows you to screw in weights in the back. I think they are available for your shafts? PDP makes them. If you need any more help shoot me a PM.

Go with a weighted insert. Based on experience, the arrow shaft inside the arrow shaft will eventually work it's way loose.

Also, it will be easier to get a matched set of weighted inserts vs. cutting other arrows and matching the weight. This will ensure all your arrows weight the same and should....hypothetically speaking...all fly the same.

i think the idea behind the shaft inside was to stiffen up front of arrow also and increase the f.o.c too.

i never heard of those inserts you 2 talk about.

do you have a site for them.
