RE: how much do you spend
I have acquiredat least four dozen already this year. Half of these were ST Excel's - which have turned to be a very good arrow for the money. Pariticularly after you true up the inserts in a lathe. Will probably get at least another dozen - maybe two. Haven't really lost or broken more than five or six - so maybe after the next purchase (ST Axis?) I'll be set for awhile hopefully.
PS- I'm providing arrows for three bows: mine, son's, and daughter's. I'm the only one who shoots regularly.
