Default RE: Anyone use the VBG arrows or drop away rest???

I have been shooting the VBG arrows since they were SME Epsilons. They are a very tough arrow and give me more than enough accuracy for my hunting rig, and even 3D shooting. They are very consistent in spine and I have yet to get one that does not group, as I have had with other arrow vendors. The one thing I like about them is the finish is very slick. Probably the highest gloss of any arrow I have seen. It makes for a very quiet draw (this is especially true if you shoot a WB!).

Even though I have arrows from just about every other manufacturer I still choose the VBG arrows when going out hunting.

One thing you need to be aware of is that the VBG arrows are spined a little on the stiff side. The Gladiators have a .385 spine and the Warriors have a .330 spine. This essentially means you can shoot the Gladiators (8.3 gpi) from a higher poundage bow and still be spined correctly, where with something like a Beman or Easton carbon, you would be shooting the .340s and leaving them longer or having a heavier tip.
