Are those the ones you have been shooting all those good scores with?

Negative on that one.

I still have those, but I'm running low and they are backordered. I knew I could get the arrow's total weight close to the same. It worked out pretty darn good too. I'm going to shoot them today, to try to get ready to shoot with Jeff and Aaron.

Didn't you skip the hardest and perhaps most important part. The arrow cleaning? Wheres the Denatured Alcohol, wheres the Acetone??

Without a good clean arrow anything short of rivets will not hold fletching in place.

If I were fletching, some old arrows, I would have done it. BUT with new arrows, I've never had one come off. With the glue that I used, the fletchings that come off will have to be scraped off or shot off.. ;):D

How is the foc and spine with the .500's.I was going to try them at one point and I was on the edge with them.


I prefer my foc to be 10% or higher outdoors.
