The one's with the red collars will have to have the collars removed for luminocks to work. They just pull out. BTW, I think the collors are the only difference in the two shafts.

That's pretty much the going price. The differnce is the finish. The Hunters have a camo finish on the front 2/3 of the arrow, what they call weight forward technology. It's designed to give you better FOC and a bit more arrow weight. The Maxima's don't have that, they are just a solid black finish.

The hunters aren't on there, they must be updating their website with all their new stuff. YES!

I would think they should fly pretty close the 250 hunters only weigh .7 of a grain more per inch than the 250 maxima's and the spines are close as well.
Personally, I purchase a dozen of the same arrows then practice with 6 and hunt with 6
Good Luck

I shoot the Maxima 250 for target and hunting. I don't see that the camo finish does anything. The maximas are the best arrows that i have ever shot.

I don't think that you can go wrong with them!

The difference between the two is a camo finish on the hunter and the hunter is a few grains heavier. I buy mine at ebay for about 85 to 90 bucks. I REALLY like the way they fly. I use the regular maximas with two red and one yellow feather. Blazers are nice but I am a long time feather junkie.

The hunters are indeed heavier, and they will impact lower than the regular maximas. I see this time and again....people get different arrows for "plunking" and hunting.....Shoot the same arrows.
