carbons are the most durable of the 3,,aluminum,,,wood,,the other 2
In my experience, that's debatable. If you're talking about thin walled aluminums, 2213's and such,pretty much yes. The thicker walled aluminums hold up just as well, if not better. I've got some 2018's and 2115's that have far out lasted the majority of carbons I've shot in the last 6 years.
I agree durability is very debatable.

I agree, the thin aluminums are not very durable compared to the thicker walled stuff. The 2020's are extremely durable.

Ed. Ashby also mentioned that hard wood arrows actually held up better then carbon on heavy bone.
I've heard this from allot of people as well!
