OK, recommended best carbon arrow & why?
 
Currently shoot Gold Tip carbons but have had 4 tips crack. Being told by local shop to go with Beman. Need input. Thanks.

I have been shooting the cabelas carbon stalkers( which I am almost positive are beman hunters) and am satisfied with the preformance. They will out shoot me, and I have found them to be pretty durable as well.

5 shot has a good suggestion. I also am shooting the Cabelas Stalker Extremes. Seem to be a decent arrow at a good price. However, I don`t know if they are Beman ICS Hunters in disguise. I shot Beman ICS Hunter 340`s before and I thought that they were heavier than the Cabela Stalker 65/85`s. Didn`t put them on a scale to find out, though.

Before you switch, tell us what type of insert glue you are using. Using certain types can weaken the carbon fiber bonds and cause premature failure of the shaft. Gold Tips are usually extremely durable so this is why I am curious.

My local pro shop also told me that PSE arrows were made by Beman. Any truth to it???

Check out the Blackhawk Vapors. They were recently reviewed in a bow mag and came in second to the G/T's for accuracy. They are very reasonably priced.

Ky,I first heard of their 395 magnums on the ASA cicuit and a friend picked up a sponsership with them.They are .395 in diameter and people liked the line cutting for 3d.At first their quality wasn't that great but they have some of the best flying arrows today.I liked the magnums so I decided to give the Stingers a try and man was I impressed and once I shot a deer with them I was hooked.They take a little tweaking in tuning but that just because they are different than what you are used to and I use paper only as a starting place.A little nock high and they are awesome.

Carbon Impact Fat shafts. I hunted with them this year and they rock. Great, durable, forgiving. (90 a dozen) But well worth it. I have shot cabelas and beman. Got try the Impacts and you will see what I see in them.
