Default RE: Aluminum Shafts ?

Droptines, I' ve watched that video more than a few times myself. It' s impressive at first glance. But after thinking about it for a bit...

I' ve watched several other slo-mo videos over the years too, and that one shows more arrow flex than any others I' ve ever seen. Of course the video' s sole purpose is to SELL GoldTip arrows. To do that, it has to show aluminum at it' s worst and GoldTip at it' s best. So. You ever think that maybe the aluminum arrow they use in that video might just be somewhat underspined and the rest set a tad offcenter and the nockset just a smidge too high, while the carbon arrow might/maybe/possibly be just a tad stiff and shot from a well tuned bow?

Would a company do such a thing for advertising?? [] And if they did, would they admit doing it?[>:]
