RE: Want More Accuracy? Pick Carbon Tech Arrows

Dave:

Yes, it's the CB nock adapters. Thank you.

MilDotMaster:

The addition of layers (layering) can and will make for a stronger arrow. The thickness of the layers is a contributing factor in the diameter and the spine. Some companies will add extra layers and then put the arrow through a 'sanding' process to enhance straightness. It all depends on the processes used by the independent manufacturers.

I know that the vacuum process that you discuss is used heavily in theprocessing of resins in the military/PC Board industry. I'm not sure it's used in the arrow manufacturing industry. Someone else may have first-hand knowledge of this. The removal of airfrom the product, just like in the concrete business, makes for a stronger end product.

I don't know if we want to get into a 'right or wrong' confrontation with other forum members. I believe, just as I share limited information with others, that we all stand to gain by sharing some knowledge. When I say "limited information", I must draw the line so as not to interfere with my fellow shop owners to make a living at their profession. I know most understand this about me. Some, however, expect me to disclose all. NOT!
