Default RE: Hey Len! Arrow question for you (or anyone else)

I can understand PW12's concern. I will also say that I found the AFC's of those days to be of lesser quality than their Beman counterpart.

The Beman point adapter was not only a tighter fit, but it accepted more of the arrow. The standard nocks were also inferior. And, Beman now offers a G-nock adapter that captivates the 'other' end of the arrow.

As far as the point adapters, I would love to see someone offer them for the wrapped carbon arrows. What PW12 says about the strength of wrapped is correct; but, a heavy pultruded carbon is hard to beat for hunting/penetration. Part of the strength is directly due to the point adapter; or, as some say, outsert.

Whatever you choose to shoot, shoot straight, shoot safe.
