To each their own........Me, I really don't understand why anyone wouldn't shoot them! They are more durable and they fly flatter. I've been shooting Gold Tip's for 5 years and love them. With that said, you should spin check each arrow before you buy them. Then, you should cut each end of the arrow to specified lengths. Doing so, will produce perfectly straight arrows that will last you many many seasons. If the previous tips do not produce straight arrows, you should send the bad ones back to the arrow manufacturer for replacement. Gold Tip is great and will ship you new arrows within days.
