I used 31" Beman Hunter Carbon 4000' s last year and loved them. They have an awsome finish which makes them entirely silent when drawing across your arrow rest. They shoot great, and as Frank said, they have very good consistancy. These things are TOUGH. I tested one by shooting it into a tree that was froze solid (this winter we had a month of weather between -30 and 5 degrees. Well, I pushed the field point into the shaft, with just one small crack. I was figuring that it would break or blow up considering that I was shooting it into a tree that was rock solid.

I managed to blow one up and that was because I shot it at 302 f.p.s. right smack into the metal post that runs in my 3-D targets leg.

I switched to BlackHawk Vapors this year, simply to try something new. I figure that if I don' t like them, then I will be getting some Beman ICS Hunter 340' s and the BlackHawks will be used as decoration pieces (they were custom made with American Flag EZE crest, red white and blue vanes and a white nock.
