Default Arrows $396.00 per DZ, stop the madness!!

Something occured to me this morning, the total price I am getting in a dozen arrows. I remember when you could get a dozen XX75 shafts for $34.00 and that included the inserts and nocks. Now I know with carbon arrows you don't need to replace them as often but the cost is just getting out of control. Here is a quick total on the cost of an arrow. I know there is some variation depending on your equipment but no matter how you look at it, it's getting rediculous. I shoot Carbon Express Maxima Hunters, price; 149.00 per dz. I shoot 100gr. Slick-Tricks, cost about $25 per three. I use NAP Shrink fletch, cost; $14.00 per six. If you add in a lighted nock, you are adding another $10.00 per arrow, which brings the grand total to about $33.00 per arrow or $396.00 per dozen! Where does it end? Oh well, that's my rant for a Monday.

Blessings.....Pastorjim
