Ultimate hunting arrow setup
I want to hear what eveyone uses as their hunting arrows or the ultimate hunting arrow setup (including broadhead, arrow, vane, wraps or not, etc...) and what they like about the setup. I am going to be updating my arrows, boradheads, vanes, etc...and would appreciate the input.

RE: Ultimate hunting arrow setup
This season I will be using goldtip pro hunter 75/95's, both 100 grain slick tricks and 100 grain rage slipcam (slick trick for shooting through mesh in the blind), blazers, bowmanhunter wraps, and lumenocks. I have a 4 arrow quiver that I hunt with, so I keep 2 arrows w/ white wraps 2x white blazers and one orange, and then I keep 2 arrows w/ flour orange wrap 2 flour orange blazers and one white for snowy conditions.
I expect them to weigh in around 385 grains or so, I will probably be shooting them at around 60lbs.

Right now my quiver is holding Gold Tip Pro 22 series from last year. The are 27", regular 22 nocks, 4" Low Profile Duravanes, 22 series insert tipped with 75 grain InnerLoc 3 blade broadheads. No wraps or other nonsense.
That was last year. I never know what this year will be. In the past I've shot a lot of different size aluminums, fiberglass, tapered glass/carbon composites from Lami-glass, ACC's, ICS's, Lightspeeds, Beman pultruded carbons. Depending on the year and how I feel they've had vanes, 4" feathers, and various different broadheads.
So who knows what this year will bring. I'll decide about a week before hunting season. It only takes and hour or so to get them set up right and sighted in. Maybe some Gold Tip Ultralite 500's this year. That's what I'm shooting out of the one bow now.
