Between two!
 

Okay fello archers. I have two arrow choices.. Should I go with Easton Epic's? or Carbon Exel's (carbonareos) You input will be essential!Thanks

RE: Between two!
 

How do the specs compare between them. They are both made by the same company, you know.

RE: Between two!
 

OK, I went and looked myself. Hands down I'd pick the Epic's. They have much better weight tolerance so the quality is better. I still don't like the .005 for straightness, but prefer .003, but that was not your question.

RE: Between two!
 

Thanks BG! I had the same thought.. They are deffinately heavier.. I guess I needed someone to make my mind up for me!!:D
And there in my price range!

Don't get the Carbon Excels, they're junk.

I may have bad luck, but I bought half a dozen and one blew up shooting target and two others had problems with the inserts coming loose. This all happened within the first couple of weeks.

Don't get either of them go with Glod Tips, they are the best you can get.

Blackhawk Vapors - Nice arrows! I used to shoot Alums XX78s and XX75s and they are nice for hunting. BUT I like the fact that carbons are either straight or broken. No guesswork. Plus there are carbons out there that are weight and straightness matched for your shooting pleasure.

I agree 100% with MNRut the easton execls are junk. do not buy them. there are better arrows out there for your money.

Poluke,

That statement isn't true. Carbon arrows can be bent and I have personally seen it. Try paper-tuning a arrow that is bent when you think it is straight.... it leads to alot of headaches.

As far as good cheap arrows go.... you can't be the prices on Gold Tips from Mt. Archery

I didn't even go with Easton.. I Just got me Gold Tip Hunter XT camo 75/95's in the mail on Thursday! Another great deal with ARCHERY EXPERTS!! They even let me pick the color of my fletching!
