Default RE: Carbon arrows more durable-not!

Of course neither are indestructable but pound for pound the carbon arrow is a lot more tough and stronger than an aluminum. That is a fact and people can dispute it all they want but they will be wrong.

If aluminum were in fact stronger and more durable than carbon don't you think that INDY and formula one race teams would use aluminum over carbon fiber in the constructionof their cars. How about carbon fiber barrels?

Ok, shooting creased aluminums is probably not very wise either, but I never claimed to be .
Glad you corrected that.

By the way, you don't bend aluminum arrows if you pull them STRAIGHT out of the target, like you're supposed to.
Yeah, no kidding. But we all know that people don't always do what they are SUPPOSE to do. Now don't we. A carbon arrow will take some, actually a whole lot more, bending much better than an aluminum will.
