Default RE: How important is shaft straighness for hunting??

As I said befor I shoot .002 bemens. my friend jims wallmart arrows grouped just as good as my $90 dz arrows:{ Allso as good as many outhers:{ I donot like wallmart [union carpenter here]. I am much happyer going to a REAL bow store.TRY asking a wallmartion a question on spine stiffness You will never find one.

I have broaken 2 arrows on elk. They where broaken by the leg coming back and snaping them off.Allso have had this with deer. With jims JUNK wallmart arrows he kills a elk and many deer every year and I have never seen him break an arrow.If any thing they may get bent if they where not a full pass though.

I am for buying GOOD items to hunt with.BUT I think in this mans question was is the .006 good enough to hunt with. If you do not have the money to spend you can still shoot very good with way less tolarances than .001.I think a lot of people are more woried about pride than telling the man the truth.Yes they may be a very very little bit better will you beable to tell NO.

The man asking did not say if he was a newbee in bow hunting or if he had every thing and was just wondering if he could inprove.I got the tought he is new to bow hunting,and telling him he HAS to get the best to shoot good is not right.

I loose 2 dz arows a year dew to the fact I shoot everthing[yotes grouse rabbits and even a few deer].
I still buy the good arrows, NOT becouse they are better for the reasion I thought they shot the best from my bow.
