Default A question that should get some interesting answers

I just picked up my tx400 I put a whisker biscuit, with 70# pull 30.5draw.
It came with three carbon shafts can not find any info for them.
Now what would all of you recommend to use, I would like to stay with the carbon shafts but which is what I need help with. Also I use 100gr points.

I recomend gold tip, from the expadition hunter to xt`s to the pro hunter there`s an arrow for every budget,with a short draw you might need a heavier shaft but that draw length I would recomend that 100 grain tip and some xt`s. My dad owns a fireplace store and I was taking care of it while he was out of town once,so of course I braught the bow in and shot 20 yards from the front door to the back door when we were slow,well its embarassing but I made a bad shot and missed high,shot through the steel door(1/8 steel on both sides) the arrow went clean through and I still shoot that arrow today( after a refletch)

If you can swing the cost, go with A/C/Cs.

The best of both the carbon and alluminum worlds combined to make one of the best shafts available.

As for what broadheads to use, we'll need to know whether you want to shoot mechanicals or fixed blade heads.

ACC's are by far my recommendation as well but many don't want to spend the money, from there down, most of the carbons are all the same.

I think we can be friends. I couldn't agree more.
