Default RE: Going Old School with Chuck Adams.....

I'm thinkin somewhere between Early and WKP.

It seems like Easton moves a lot more carbon and would have a lot more profit margin with their new carbon stuff. So pushing aluminum now doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. While its likely Chuck Adams (who is a great hunter no matter what equipment he uses) would choose endorsed equipment when its not that different from the others, i.e. Easton carbons over Gold Tip carbons (why not do that?), I'm not sure I understand the aluminum thing. Maybe he really believes aluminum gives him the best chance to take game. Or maybe, since Easton kind of has the aluminum market sowed up (or at least that's my limited belief), it is worth it for them to push aluminum with a much larger share of the market (when compared to carbon).

I quit using aluminum just because everybody else did. So of course I assumed carbon was better. I'm not switching back to aluminum, but it is still interesting. There, Easton's evil genius marketing scheme failed. [8D]
