what arrows should i be using?
 
i know theres a lot of good products out there, but some opinions on the best arrows for me would be appreciated.
i shoot a bowtech admiral, 29 in. draw, 72 lb pull.
i want a good hunting arrow thats gonna get the most speed out of my bow..

Some of us wouldn't know
 
we're still using slow, aluminum arrows on our bows that don't cost $900.

Just take some planning. Make sure you shoot at least 350gr. I myself feel easton ACC's and maximas are about the best coming out.

Something with a spine rating of .300". Pick something. There are tons of good arrows on the market. If you have a local shop then go see what is there. You want to be able to get arrows when you need them so see what he has.

i like my arrows now. theyre easton 340 fmj's. only problem is theyre super heavy. i think with my broadhead theyre around 550 grain... and im only getting 277 fps out of my admiral. seems a little slow to me

I'd shoot Goldtip 7595's with a finished arrow weight of around 420 gr (6 gr/lb). My Guardian loves this setup, and the arrows are really durable.

im moderately confused about the last post?

277 is fast enough! If you want to go lighter Carbon Express Maximas are a good arrow.

I second the gold tips. Affordable and tough as nails..

The Easton flatlines are gone be about the fastest arrows out there. The 340s would work fine

The only arrow that I will ever use is the gold tip 5575 expedition hunter and I have shot all kinds of carbon and aluminum arrows and those are the only arrows you will ever see in my quiver.

i use yhe easton flat line out of my mathews reezen 6.5 29 inch draw at 71 pounds with a finished arrow weight of 401 grains and i get between 311 and 315 fps out of them and the really group well

Jim Williams 02-14-2011 05:13 AM

"Opinions are like belly buttons, everybody has one". So here is mine. I shoot a Mathews DXT @ 280fps with my hunt arrows. I use Easton axis 400 spine arrows with 100gr. G5 montec broadheads but their are many other brands that work very well. I have killed elk, deer, bear, coyotes, bobcats and a coon using the Easton arrows and the the montec broadheads. Check out all the options and choose what you are comfortable with. Jim

CX Maxima Hunter 350 run out of my Z7, 29" 70#.

28.25" length, Luminock, Blazer vanes, 100gr tip, 406gr total weight. I am getting 297-299 FPS out of my set up.
