Biggest myth in archery, I can't believe people still buy into that crap. Carbons can and do go bad. And when they do they are MUCH worse than aluminums. That is if they are good out of the box to begin with.

I feel pretty much the same way as Chuck does. Although I do think there are some very good mechanicals on the market. You still need to tune your equipment and shoot enough bow to use them though. Some mechanicals penetrate better than some large fixed blades however.

Chuck is old school, it is hard to get him to change his ways. And if he does it's for a good reason.

I think he is probably one of the best hunters in generations, and he was a pretty decent target archer from what I understand as well. However like said you do need to keep in mind like his buddy he gets paid to say the things he says. You also have to keep in mind he is sponsored by Easton and they are a huge Carbon arrow manufacturer. I'm sure they are not thrilled about him talking smack about carbon arrows.

I have never heard him say he doesn't like the hybrid arrows like FMJ and ACC's. He just prefers large aluminums better. When you see him do an add for Epics or something then you can call him on it. Then again it might be in his contract so he would have to do it.
