I bought a dozen Redhead Carbon Fury's for $45.00, fletched and ready to shoot. In my opinion, I can't tell any difference in these and the goldtips I had before, other than the pricetag. I shot a 94# doe Saturday evening with one of the redhead arrows and had a complete passthru. The arrow is still completely intact and ready to be used again. I'll buy these arrows again next time I need some.
