Default GoldTip Series 22 Problems ?

Ive been shooting GoldTip Series 22 Pro shafts for a short time and have noticed some of my arrows that originally grouped tight are definately becoming consistant flyers impacting approx 1 foot high at 30 yards. I do not know wether it is due to the spine giving out, possible impacts from other shafts while 3-D shooting or some other cause. These shafts that are affected (approx 3 so far) have only been shot approx a couple hundred times. Has anyone been experiencing a similar problem so that I may know what to look for. I would like to stay with this shaft if possible but must find out what is causing this.
Thank you
BD

Welcome to The Owner's of Arrows with Straightness/Spine Trouble (T.O.A.S.T)



Assuming all the other shafts group tight, and there is no visible damage I would try rotating nocks to a different position and see if that helps pull them into the group. If that does not work, try reinstalling points/components.

Otherwise they will work great for your tomato plants

Jeff;

I would like to apply for membership in T.O.A.S.T. based on my ownership of Axis arrows. I do, however, have 10 dinged up (some with as many as 7 dings in the unibushing alone) ACCs and I didn't know if that would count against me. Maybe I could become an associate member?[8D]

Say no more! Any and all ST AXIS (or other Easton/Beman all-carbon arrow shafting) owners automatically qualify for a yearly membership with all dues waived.

Count me in also Jeff, after the Blackhawks went to crap (seemed like about a week) the Easton Evolutions were better but still some of them are wacky, haven't had any trouble with the Axis yet but from what I'm reading it's just a matter of time. Guess I'll go with ACC's and get it over with.
