I recently purchased a half dozen Super Carbon 50-75 arrows. They are cut at 28 inches and I am shooting them out of a Parker Hunter mag with a 29 inch draw not counting the bit you get from the rest setting back from the riser. I am shooting about66 or 67 pounds with a release and the bow is 37 inches with an Axles to axle of 7 inches. They are shooting the best that any arrow has shot through them. Now for my question?
I previously bought Beman ICS Hunter 400 arrows for it at the same length with the same set up as above and these arrows never would shoot consistent regardless of tune. However, both charts call for these arrows for my setup. I like the Bemans for the slick finish with out noise on drawback as compared to the Super Carbons, but with the arrow flight and consistent grouping, the Super Carbons seem much better and great. Can someone explain to me the difference? Thanks

I don' t know what the difference would be but, if the carbon' s are shooting that good, I would definately stay with them.

Frankly, I think they have grossly overrated the spine on the 400' s. I' ve done terribly bad with them and have run into quite a few others that have had the same experience. Anyone in the upper end of the quoted spine range for the Beman 400s should go ahead and go 340' s instead.

I ran into something similar with my ACC' s. I have shot them for a year and a half now. They have shot wonderfully until recent weeks. I don' t know if I shot the spine out of them or what. I did find that 3 were slightly bent. I went back to my old GT Hunter camos and am shooting like a champ again. I don' t know what is going on. I' m very disappointed in the expensive ACC' s though. Maybe it is some kind of user error, although I would have expected it to show up in the GT' s, too.

Aso,the only downfall to the Super Carbon' s is noise through the whisker biscuit. Does anyone have a clue as how to rememdy this?
