Default RE: Arrow weight question

Pros and cons of light carons and heavy aluminum

CARBONS

pros -- fast flat trajectory
don't have to worry about yardage as much

cons -- makes bow noisy
drifts more in wind
not as much down range KE
straght arrows cost more
shot placement a must ie. (no shoulder bones)


ALUMINUMS

pros -- quites bow
more KE (can hit bone)
tough ie.(2219)
can shoot big heavy broadheads with
don't have to worry about wind drift as much
straghter then carbons

cons -- slow
have to know yardages

This is just my opinon
This year I'm sitching from cx select 60/75 w/muzzy 100gr 4 blade (466gr) total arrow weight fps.266
to 2219 xx75 w/either rocket buckblaster 125gr 2 3/4" or magnus snuffer 150gr total weight from 600grs to 625grs w/fps around 235
