Default RE: i hate carbon arrows

ORIGINAL: SS2000

I've tried them for two years now and still think it stinks that you cant tune your broadheads on them.
Alum. you use hot melt and you can get the broadheads perfect. But i do like the lighter weight. and the fly fine. I've seen the little dog bone thing from G5 that is suppose to true the insert end. Do they work. How can you get the inserts out of carbon shafts. Reglue with slow epoxy?
LMAO! Yeah, sure enough you're right. That's why there are literally THOUSANDS of deer killed each year with carbon arrows. You don't honestly think they're being shot w/ field points do ya?

That "little dog bone thing" is the ASD (arrow squaring device) from G5. Yes, they work very well. I understand what you mean about the hot melt glue though.....And in that aspect you're spot on. BUT, instead of using super glue to glue in your inserts.......Why couldn't you use 2 part epoxy, screw your broadheads into the inserts, and tune them that way. W/ the epoxy, you've got some time before it sets so you could spin your inserts to get the wobble out of the broadhead....Just a thought.
