[ol][*]Do you shoot carbon, aluminum, or wood arrows? carbon[*]How often do you buy arrows and how many do you usually purchase? 2-3 dozen each year[*]In what ways can your current arrow be improved upon? I want to see a carbon that has a factory reflective "cap" about 12" from the nock. [*]Do you prefer plastic or feather fletches? I make my own turkey fletching[*]If you shoot either carbon or aluminum arrows, would you ever consider shooting wooden arrows? I've shot woods, as poorly as I shoot I need ultra consistant arrows. I've made a lot of woods, just have better luck tuning/shooting carbons[*]Are you satisfied with your current arrow maker? Beman, yes[*]Do you buy arrows from an online auction site? sometimes[*]Do you buy arrows from an online manufacturer? sometimes[*]Do you think tapered arrows are superior to parallel arrows? no opinion[*]Do you prefer a no frills arrow or one dipped, crested, etc.? currently my arrows are capped with 3M reflective tape, and then the feathers I really like either fletch tape of a bonding adhesive. Fletchtite sucks[*]Is the market too saturated with custom arrow builders? I build my own[/ol]


let me add, I shoot a lot of the 1970's Graphlex arrows that I've bought off EBAY and message boards. Super tough, heavy, and I literally glue a 3: piece of aluminum shaft to the tip, giving me an almost indestrucible arrow and more FOC. Weird looking arrows but they are heavy, shoot great, impervious to weather .... either those of my ICS 500 shafs with carbon insters (my #1 arrows as of right now)
