You should allow for more than one choice. I hunt with /have hunted with all of them

As it is I shoot A/C/C and Carbon...guess I'll vote A/C/C

I use Gold Tip 3D pro's in 3555's The guy who own's the shop uses them for hunting moose on down to Turkey's. I wasn't sure whether 3555 would be enough spline, but I'm going to try them and see for myself.I'll sure be ticked if that moose walk's away looking at me .
Some of you's have told me that this shaft is too light for moose, but I sure hope your wrong .

Interesting results so far and I cannot say that the results surprise me considering the demographic representation of the folks that visit these forums.

It depends on what I'm hunting. I shoot Gold Tips for turkey and antelope and Beman Matrix for deer and anything larger.

I have hunted with carbons the last 8-10 years.
I started hunting with aluminum arrows, and hunted with them for about 5 years.
Then went to the skinny bemans with outserts, and switched to Beman ICS.
But, this year I have purchased aluminums and am thinking strongly of hunting with them
again this year. Camo

Used to hunt carbons from Beman. Now I am back to xx75 aluminum in 2315 at 30 inches. It packs a whallop. I had trouble patterning with the carbon. Could have been me though.

I have hunted with both carbon and aluminum in the past but I have to vote for the heavy 2219 aluminum's that I currently use! Great for elk!
