I am a huge fan of any arrow with aluminum in it! I believe, that they shoot more consistantly for me. Currently, I am shooting a bowtech allegiance set at 75 lbs. I draw 28.5 inches. The two arrows that shoot best are the beman matrix (carbon and aluminum) and the xx78 2514. The 2514 shoots a touch better.They are both cut to 28 inches, the 340 wears 100 grains on the tip, the2514 wears 125. Blazers on the 340, 5 in marcos on the 2514. I realize that there are carbons thatI have not tried that may shoot better, I just have not invested in them. I have shotblack hawk, beman, gold tip and easton excel. Remember, the aluminum in the composites can still bend, but they are tough. As far asshooting inside 35yards, ICOULD shoot all carbons. But after 40 I really notice the difference. Lets just say I like to be confident when I shoot at my target at 60.
