RE: Does it really make a difference?
And carbon is what's left over after the fire.[8D]
I like shooting wood arrows, but it takes a heckuva lot of work to put together a truly matched set. I don't put in the effortto do it, even though I know it'd improve my accuracy immensely, but I still like shooting wood arrows.
I like aluminum for their consistency, but they can be noisy if you get a bad release. And they're not easy to find in the local shops around here. They've all gone carbon.
I dislike carbon because they are too light, not even as straight as my cedars, and are inconsistent in weight and spine. In other words, it takes a lot of work - or money - to put together a truly matched set.
Which brings me to fiberglass/carbon composite arrows. The most durable arrow I've ever shot. Nice heft without having to stuff them full of extra weight.Not quite as straight and consistent as aluminum, but a LOT better than carbon of equal price. My choice is Carbon Express Terminator Select.
