The arrows are not the carbon express maximas;they are the carbon express maxima hunters.The regular maximas do not have the 2/3 buff tuff camo forward and the cross weave on the back one third,only the maxima hunters have this setup.Regular maximas are all camo from front to back.The maxima hunters are great shooting ,great quality tough arrows.Also the guy from Gander is wrong,you can scrape off fletchings just like any other good quality arrow and you will not damage the finish at all.These things are tough.
