anyone? I was just gonna make a fresh batch. What ya'll want on it? How bout butter and cajun salt? That work?


OK......we could be here all night, but GENERALLY speaking, carbons are faster because of their lighter weight and smaller diameter. They are quite durable and can withstand fairly substantial abuse. Don't buy into the "It's either broke or good" theory, though. That just ain't true. Carbons have been faulted for their lack of consistencey, but in the last year or two the carbon arrow business has come on strong making arrows every bit as tight as aluminum.

Again, GENERALLY speaking, aluminums are heavier delivering more downrange KE and momentum. Aluminum has been the leader in tolerances, but again, in the last couple years high end carbon run neck and neck. Aluminums are generally less expensive than their carbon counterparts of equal tolerances, but not always. You bang aluminums together, they dent and bend, but can sometimes be straightened.

Again, these are generalizations. You gotta decide what's best for you.
