Default Carbon arrows

What type of carbon arrows do you guys shoot (If you do) i was using Easton carbon evolution but now i'm out and need to get new ones but can't seem to find these arrows anywheree (unless they just changed the name) I like to only shoot and practice with the exact same arrow (pet peeve type of thing)

Just wondering if you guys have any good recommendations on carbon arrows?

Thanks

Well I shoot the game tracker CX hunters 300 series... they cost a bit more but the straightness is better. I was looking at trying the vapors
but I seen how tough these arrows are and would like the same from
any others I buy. Have to agree to the pet thing.

From what I've heard you are correct on the name change, what was the Evolutions is now listed on the Easton site as C2's, 2 different camo's and I beleive the C2 Epics which are black.

I shoot the CX300's.

Go to ebay and there are some dipped and crested raw shafts for $50.00 plus shipping. They are close outs from last year. I bought some earlier this year from this seller with no problems at all.

I doubt you will ever find them any cheaper than that.
Mine weigh 402 grains with three feathers, nock, insert, & 125 grain head cut to 30 inches.



There are some terminator hunter selects (45-60) for $44.95 if you want a heavier arrow than the CX will give you. I have not bought from this seller.

Gold Tip, Gold Tip, and Gold Tip. AWESOME arrows and the cheapest you can find is on ebay. A guy on ebay I found fletches and cuts to size for around 55-60 dollars. I believe it is mnjarchery. They are really tough arrows and reasonably priced.

It really depends on what you're going to use them for. I've used beman ics hunters for the past few years and I really like them as a hunting arrow. The super smooth finish is silent on the steel prongs of my quicktune. I tried some easton excels and they were not even close to quiet on the steel prongs, other than that they were fine. For 3d I switched to cxl's because they are lighter and bigger in diameter.
