Default RE: Glass shafts

Be careful of one thing - the inserts ! My Gordon shafts appear to be 23/64th shaft diameter, and they have thicker walls so the problem I found was that the insert lip does not cover the end of the shaft completely. In other words, hit something hard and it tends to drive the insert into the shafts instead of the shaft absorbing the blow. I had it happen. Went to an archery shot today and ALL aluminum inserts are like that. Big problem unless you never hit anything solid - and I miss a LOT. DOn't have a solution either ......
