I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
I am gettting my 82nd airborne and plan on pulling all 70#'s. Now the tip weight well, i will let you you guys decide.

Thanks for you input

I was hoping to stat as close the 350 grains as possible, i was thinking about the GT Nuge Shaft and taken the (feathers) off and putting blazers on, but i dont really like the tolerance they state they have so, i am only going to buy a 1/2 dzn of what ever i buy but i would like to have as much of my arrow shaft white as possible

I would go with easton axis FMJ Aluminum shaft with carbon core. And as I said ive shot some things i wasnt suppose to, and the arrows are still straight.

You ain't kidding those FMJ's are some bad motha's. I've done a few things with them that isn't advertised too..and they keep amazing me.

Sorrry about the quotes but i cant post unless i quote.
I am Lokking at around 400 grains with the lightest arrow.
So the outer alloy wont bend like the older aluminum shafts would

Yea right now through my old bow i am shooting the XT hunters but i was wondering if i could just strip the dura vanes off and get blazers or just get a new arrow

nissan300ztt 09-23-2008 07:18 PM

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
yeah man the EASTON AXIS FMJ'S seem expensive but after accidentally popping my new trigger release missed my target with muzzy phantoms hit a concrete wall the broadhead was toast but tht arrow was still straight in factory specs

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
Speaking from expirience, even if you bend it by force like a light weight fishing pole with a big catfish on it..as long as it doesn't crease..it'll pop back and retain it's straightness.

I wouldn't have believed it either...cept I did it. To this day I can'ttell youwhich of the half dozen it was. They all fly perfectly!

how much were they, and can i get them with blazers or are the blazers just hype

nissan300ztt 09-23-2008 07:27 PM

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
Well man a got them at my local archery shop for $100 for the easton FMJ
and $2.50per/arrow with NAP quikspin fletchings.
They fly awesomely.

GR8atta2d 09-23-2008 07:29 PM

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
Hmmm I got them through Cabelas I don't know what they retailed for. I got them free with my points.Digging out my book....with Blazers $65 a half dozen.

GR8atta2d 09-23-2008 07:32 PM

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
Blazers are to tall for me..I like a shorter profile. I shoot the 3" AAE vanes. All personal preference, many swear by Blazers.

I might just go to my shop with my new bow get everything all setup and buy 1 arrow and shoot it something hard a couple of times and see what happens. Cuz i have split my gts, funny story actually, i was shooting into a block and it fell over, so i shot a couple more times and here this schwak walk up to it and trie to pull my arrow out and one arrow actually went threw the shaft and locked it in place.

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?

Yea what might happen is i will buy one of each weight and find out my speed then calcuate my KE and which ever1 has the most i will buy 5 more
lol

GMMAT 09-23-2008 07:47 PM

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
If I were you.....I'd take advantage of the speed of that bow and shoot something like a 3-71 a/c/c. You've got a TON of potential KE.

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
What kind of bow do you shoot. I shoot a bowtech commander 71lbs draw 29" DL 77.36pound of kinetic energy And ive even gone to shoot my buddies arrows which are 10.7grains per inch @28" and are easton axis carbons. and they shoot around 298fps.

nissan300ztt 09-23-2008 07:49 PM

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
My bow shoots fine and I get pass through I appreciate your suggestion. But I like my easton axis FMJs

If you r asking me, a 82nd air

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
Well you have a bow that at 70# draw can shoot 330fps easily. Now its just getting an arrow that meets your needs and will still make you happy..And thats why if your a strict hunter the EASTON AXIS FMJs are tough arrow thats weighs less then my easton AXIS carbons. like .5 grains per inch..Doesnt seem like much but only 28 inches that 14 grains. Equals 7FPS. So thats just my quick calculation. But the 82nd is an amazing bow I have one as my target bow. And im using Easton Axis Aluminums and this bow is fast.

yea so lets say 400 grains max, 330fps max that comes out to .................. should of paid more attention in math class

nissan300ztt 09-24-2008 06:56 PM

RE: I was wondering what arrrows to get?
 
LOL nah its kool.. Um in my experience and please this is just what I have observed. Everything 2 grains is 1 FPS loss. And my commander is set at 71# and shoots 298FPS with my easton axis CARBON slim tech with a 125gr field tip 2" Quik spin and wrap cut to 28". I would shoot whats comfortable to you. Like I said if your strict hunter. A tougher arrows is probably better AXIS FMJ/Carbon Maximas

I am shooting epic ST's and honestly I wish I would have stuck with the Maxima 250's I thought they flew way better......

I think someone said on here that P&Y minimum is 400 grains. I wouldn't want to be sitting there with a 375 grain arrow when a record book whitetail walks out in front of me..
