For me I've been using easton carbon evolutions for shooting and hunting, supposely. The beman treebark/evolution and the easton c2 are the same arrows. But I've been doing some checking around and I found that gold tips make probably. The best carbon arrows out there right now, but it's all what you prefer, and willing to spend. They are up there in price, they have some cheapies too. For me I'am happy using easton arrows and I'll probably keep using them. In fact they are not going to manufacture the evolutions anymore. Which is the arrow I like but I don't know why. I'am not sure, I guess they were not selling to well, but like I said it's all what you prefer. Some like alluminum because you don't have to worry about particles. Like in carbon arrows if it breaks in what ever animal you are hunting. But alluminum do break and bend very easy, trust me it sucks. But I'am happy with carbon arrows they are definately tuff... take care.
