Default RE: Tried a carbon arrow for the first time...

Butch, JeffB sent me some Carbon Express Terminator Selects, 4 Hunters and 1 standard, so I could give ' em a workout. And, brother, have I been putting them through it over the past month. I' ve bounced the things off trees, shot through bag targets, through brush, bamboo and weeds. Just about every kind of abuse I can think of to put them through, I' ve done it. Except for blasting them into steel plate. My feathers are getting kinda ratty, but they' ll still shoot broadheads as well as my 2315' s will.

The Hunters have a camo coating that adds a little over 1 grain per inch, and they are very close to weighing exactly the same as a 2315.

If they have a drawback, it' s that the arrow makes a whistling sound as the arrow is drawn on the rest. Jeff tells me the new models have a different finish on them that solved that problem though.

Bear in mind that these are the Selects, not the plain jane Terminators.
