Last few years been shooting lighter arrows for hunting, no problems really but I' ve went full circle. While carbons are available in heavier models now, I truly believe my old tried and true heavier set up is best, at least for me. I have gone from 2219s to 2216s to 2213s to carbons that are comparable in weight to 2213s.

Me thinks its time to go back to 2216s or 2315s, quite possibly the Easton A/C Kinetics. Why?

(1) PENETRATION and harder hitting, bow quieting power!
(2) Most of my shots at whitetail deer are 20 yards or less
(3) Even taking longer shots, the heavier arrow will slow down less than the lighter faster arrow
(4)My bow is fast enough that I can still use one or two pins for hunting
(5)Heck, even Easton' s website acknowleges this as follows:

In their shaft selection guidelines, one line strikes me.........heavier weights for excellent durability and penetration.

Funny thing is............I knew that![]
