Len, I certainly see your side of it. But I' m just a pore ol' Texas redneck that doesn' t have the money to throw away on a truckload of dung, hoping to find a few pearls buried in the slop. When someone like you, who sees more carbon arrows in one day that I could mess with in two years, tells me I' d have to buy two dozen of what is commonly acknowledged as the premier carbon/aluminum shaft in production today just to get 9 arrows I can actually hunt with, it certainly makes me sit up and take notice.

Even the midrange aluminum arrows have always given me a better yield than that.
