Default RE: BACK TO XX78-GOODBYE CARBON ??????

Wack, I chose the ACC's because there is little chance of total arrow failure as with an all carbon arrow. I instructed the J.O.A.D youth team for many years at our club. The ultra lite aluminums were the ticket indoors, but for outdoor yardage the kids needed the advantage of the light weight carbon arrow. Intermediate female archers shoot 70 meters and male shooters are out to 80 meters shooting recurve bows. We tested many carbon arrows and the ACC's or if the family could afford them, the ACE's were found to be the best and safest to gain the an advantage. We did have some damaged arrows, but all the damage was on the outer carbon wrap and was visible unlike an all carbon or carbon wrap arrows that often fracture inside. In my opinion the carbon wrapped aluminum arrows are the safest and most reliable arrows on the market whether for hunting or Olympic class targetshooting. Check out Lancaster Archery Supply's web page. Rob, the owner, has helped disign a new carbon arrow called the Nano XR. Are you ready for the price? You can havea dozen of this new carbonbare shaft for $500. [:-] I'm sure someone will bite, not me. And we wonder why the price of our gear is getting out of hand.
