I wish WWAG would use his considerable mechanical experise to develop a reasonably priced spine checker. His press and CAMirror are genius. |
my personal opinion is the fmj's are great for 3d they pull like butter but if you slap an arrow on anything they are pretty much toast they are a good arrow as long as you don't do anything to bend them.and be careful pulling the as you would an aluminum This was my 1st year shooting FMJ's. Loving them so far!! I do allot of stump shooting In the summer with my 62lb recurve and haven't bent one or broke one yet. Some of the stumps are "harder" then they appear to be and when your arrow bounces off your thinking oh ****!! So far so good though. I'm not looking to argue at all but I'm curious being I've never heard anyone say this before about FMJ's. Everyone I've talked with about my arrow set up tells me your shooting a tough, outstanding arrow. |
Steve:
I don't know this to be fact. But, I'd say a LOT of his opinion is based on the speed compounds are pushing his arrows. I know I broke more arrows, shooting compounds, than I do, now. Just a thought. |
I was thinking that too Jeff but I can pretty much gaurantee being he's shooting a compound his arrow Is much lighter then mine. My heavy arrow Is hitting very hard, that has to be tough on the arrow too with the high weight.
|
I guess It really doesn't matter either way, they've been excellent for me and that's what matters. Good post everyone, I learned a good bunch on all carbon and carbon/aluminum arrows.
|
With that added weight....comes additional spine/stiffness.
Makes sense to me. |
All I know is I have had more dependability and confidence shooting aluminum/carbon arrows. I will NEVER buy another all carbon arrow again.
Toughest arrows I ever owned were the discontinued Easton A/C Superslims. If I could find more new ones I would buy them. Its ACCs or ACC Pro Hunters for me. Thanks JeffB and BC for the technical stuff, very interesting to say the least. |

So far the AlphaBurner will tune with/shoot anything I've put through it- I expect no less with these. |
BIGCOUNTRY-
My arrows are only 27" so does that mean I can only check spine before I cut them below 28"? |
