Default RE: New Xbow Hunter needs help

I prefer carbon shafts - I've had an issue with aluminum shafts bendingon me. With a carbon, it's either straight or it's broken. But either one will work fine. Just make sure you pull the aluminum bolts out of a target STRAIGHT - don't twist it to one side or it may slightly bend it. I'd use the 125 grain heads - I think that's what TenPoint recommends. There are a lot of good mechanical heads out there, or you can try a Slick Trick - they fly just like field tips for me.
