Default Grain Scales

GKF Has some new Grain scales which is a must for any serious archer! and the best part is they wont break the bank I think they retail around $75.00
I like them because they are so compact and portable.

GKF Not just arrow rests anymore.

Give GKF a call and get the new accessories catalogue, you will be suprised what all they have to offer![8D]

Not trying to bash the scales but have you checked them against any of the higher priced scales for consistancy? I have been looking for a set of scales and if these prove to be accurate I might pick one up.

Chalk me up as ordering one as I need a scale that is more accurate than my current one. Are they up on GKF's website yet?

Looks good. Might have to look into getting one. Are they going to be able to hold an arrow without it rolling off?

Two grains of salt will keep it on the scale. Don't know the weight of them but a person could check I guess.

I am pretty sure that they are being shipped to retailers already. You can put something on the scale to keep the arrow from rolling off then set the scale at 0.

I thought I saw something on that Archery Dealer message board where it may be a week or two yet before they were shipping. Any suggetions on where to start looking to see them?
