How do you like them? Just wondering what the buzz is about.

Default RE: Axis arrows

Weight & Spine tolerances are very good on average (you get a few clunkers like everyone else who makes carbon arrows). Straightness is a crapshoot, and I'm starting to see the degredation of the straightness in my original doz (they are developing nock or point end wobble)[:'(]

When they are straight they shoot phenomenally well! Scary accurate!

Love the HIT!

A+ for the idea.

C- for overall execution.

They need some refinement. If Easton can do it, they will be the hunting arrow of the future AFAIC. But right now it's a big "if".

I have not yet noticed the degradation that Jeff made mention of above but he is normally more right than not () so I am guessing it is only a matter of time before I do. So far I am fairly impressed with them though. They will most likely be my hunting arrow for this fall unless I experience undo problems with them and my choice of expandable head.
