Lots of info on AT. I did buy a dozen of the HVs last Christmas. They spined as close to ACCs as anything I have tested, which admittedly hasn't been that much. They shot very well for me, but IMO, they are not all that durable. Not sure I'd want to hit bone on a deer with the HV, so I never hunted with them. The regular shafts should be a lot tougher.
Hey bro!
I did some searching on AT, but couldn't find much about spine consistency, though weight and straightness seems on the money. I'd def be using the tougher hunting series shafts. Thanks for the FYI, coming from you that gives me confidence to try some (if my shop carries them)
I remember myself and a few others (Len especially) on this website kept harping for YEARS just how good A/C/Cs were and how critical spine is and how most all carbons sucked in that regard. Not many people listened I don;t think. I'm glad now I see all the manufacturers are hyping spine consistency, trying to get it right- even Bowhunter magazine online has a video spot on the website talking about it (though it's basically just a commercial for CX shafts
). Like I always said, you wouldnt shoot a 2314, 2413, and 2412 outta your bow at the same time so why would you do the same thing with the cheap@$$ carbons ?
