Well .........the ole Axis's !! The first 6 I fletched I shot into my block and my Mckenzie Javelina Natural look target (you know how hard those are) !! After a while......they still grouped good but my groups opened up a little (somewhat concerning,but no big deal) ! Most had a slight wobble......I think one spun true !

My second set of 6 I have only shot into this soft 3-d target and my block "a little" !! They seem to have held up better ........but........I only have 3 of the 6 that spin true now ! One that was spinning true a few weeks ago crapped out on me this week !!
Basically the same scenario that happened with mine. I didn't notice them going bad until I started shooting them into harder target materials with broadheads.

Any negative with the GT Pro's ???
Very little with the 2004 arrows. The spine consistency still is not the best out there, but straightness has improved greatly. Still might have a slight wobble if you shoot a very long arrow (30" plus). At a cut length of 28" (of shaft only), mine have been super straight..nearly as good as XX78s

Weight tolerances and the new nocks are much, much better too. If you get a "flyer" turn the nock, and that usually will bring it back into a group.
