RE: carbon or wood
I' m kind of the same way. I like woodies better, but I want to get some carbons just to toy around with. I' m also waitin on a Hunter II and know I' ll want some woodies, but I' m always thinkin about messing around with carbons. I also got a bow off ebay that I' m waitin on Brownin Nomad Stalker I that I' ll probly go with carbons or aluminums ' cause I don' t want to put all the work of woodies into a bow that more or less a collectors item. It isn' t a bow I plan on huntin with ' cept maybe squirrels and groundhogs, so I don' t know if I' m going to put all that effort into arrows that are probably just going to see a target. If that makes any sense. But like Arthur said, keep a bunch on hand and go with whatever fits your fancy on a given day.
