Default Carbon arrows????

I went back several pages looking for a thread on using carbon arrows with a recurve. I couldn't find anything.

Anyone have any experience with using them?

Default RE: Carbon arrows????

I've used them, but it was many years ago. When I shot them (off a longbow) the only ones on the market that I could find were Beeman's. Lots of folks shoot them now, and there's even carbon arrows that target (no pun intended) the traditional market.

Two things to consider (other than what you would consider with any other arrow): carbon arrows generally run light--you may have to use a very heavy point or weighting system; and if you shoot in tournaments some don't allow carbon arrows.
