If you're color blind, then I'd pick up arrows that I can find. Losing cheap arrows is more expensive than buying expensive arrows. You might consider adding wraps that you can see to improve your arrow recovery.

Here's how I feel about arrows...

How often do you buy arrows? It is NOT just a myth that better arrows generally stay straight and stable LONGER (i.e. the arrow life is longer) than cheaper arrows. If you are a guy that doesn't shoot very often, and resultantly doesn't buy arrows very often, then splurging a little and buying higher quality arrows really isn't going to hurt you.

On the other hand, if you're a guy that shoots a lot, you're wearing out arrows quickly. Guys that do this usually have a reason for shooting such high volume, i.e. they shoot competitions. In that case, then you will quickly discover that the extra price is worth it to get the best flying, most repeatable arrows.

OR, if you're a high volume shooter that just likes to go out in the back yard and kill haybales for something to do, just like a high volume rifle shooter, then all you need is a cheap plinking arrow that flies well enough to meet your expectations.

I personally shoot GoldTip Velocity XT 300's, run me about $10 a shaft for my Destroyer, and Gold Tip XT Hunter 7595's for my Monster, and I go through about a half dozen of each a year just wearing them out. They stay straight for a LOT of shots, they meet my needs for accuracy, straightness, velocity, gpi, so I don't mind spending the money. I lose a lot more arrows than I wear out, but that's what I get for trying to call coyotes to a bow!

I figure if I buy a new dozen arrows a year, that's about $10-15 a month, so skip a couple trips to McDonald's each month, or skip a couple packs of cigarettes here and there, use the coupons at the grocery store, etc. My trick: I have a cabelas credit card that I pay my monthly bills with each month, the cabelas cash rewards back pays for my arrows pretty easily.
