Default RE: What carbon arrow?

I would like to second the suggestion of the Easton Axis arrow. I have been very impressed with mine, to the point where I might just retire my ACCs.[:-]

The Axis seem very consistent in weight, all broadheads I have installed in them spin perfectly, and they shoot well. The are a little heavier than some carbons, so if you are interested in the very fastest arrow, these are not it. My 29" 400s with vane weigh just over 400 grains. Shooting at a brand new Makenzie Aim Rite core, my 60# dual cam bow was driving these arrows through the core so the points were sticking out the far side. The other thing I noticed was that they pulled from the foam easier than any carbon I have ever shot. I have yet to see a down side to these arrows. If there is one, I guess it would be their small diameter, and fletch clearance. Mine are fletched with a left offset, so it is not a problem to shoot them with a prong rest or Starhunter. I'll probably fletch them with a full helical, and shoot the Whisker Biscuit. A drop away would work well with these arrows for those who like them.
