2213's for me. Tried them all and you just can't beat the specs for the money even on cheap aluminum arrows.

Carbons are really not that consistant and they can and do go bad. Don't believe the hype and myths. That they are either straight or broke crap is just that, a load of crap. Sometimes they are not even straight out of the box.

My local shop still carries aluminums in various sizes.

I shoot aluminum for indoor and 3D, but changed to carbon for hunting.

I love my aluminums. But may be switching to carbon aluminum next year as the price of steel keeps rising arrows are going to go up in price as well. Im shoot Easton Gamegetter 2314's right now with Muzzy 4 blade 100gr broadheads and a couple with Wasp Hammer SST's 100gr, I tell you the 2314 with the right broad head leaves one hell of a hole. This buck was shot this year by me with the Wasp braodhead.
Look at that entry hole.

You guys and all your fancy technology shooting metal arrows.

When I was your age alls we had to shoot was wood and flint - and we liked it!
I still shave my arrows from cedar. Money doesn't grow on trees you know - but my arrows do! [&:]
