This about the 4 of my expensive arrows to do this and it's getting expensive. I have only shot these in a foam multi layer target. The little spec caught in there is probably from shooting, I have shot this one a few more times since the damage. I check the arrows after each pull, but never notice this until the next time I shoot. Arrows are stored in a safe place...nobody sitting on them.

This one looks like there may have been some contact but I don't recall it. I only shoot 4 arrows at a time at a target, 4 circles, one arrow at each circle. The other 3 arrows looked like someone slit the outside fiber with a razer blade and it then sort of bubbled up. First time I think I yanked it sideways on the pull, nope.

Any suggestions? These are expensive arrows.

Thanks,

Take them back to where you brought them Easton have a very good warranty and will look after you.

If the shop wont help you out contact Easton direct.

Thanks for the reply, I should have mentioned they are used (slightly arrows). About 6 came with the bow, another bunch I bought off ebay, they had never been fletched. Both batches have done this. So it's either something I am doing wrong or a trait of these arrows. These are my first ever CF arrows.

Thanks,
Rob

Looks to me like you have a broadhead stuck in the target..Is that your target??

That is definitely NOT a trait of these arrows!!! As Newman said something might be imbedded inside the target.

Don't know definitely not normal , like others have said there may be something in the target, a broadhead or a blade maybe. I would NOT shoot the damaged ones anymore, trash 'em, before something really ugly happens.

Hmm, Target brand new bought at our new Gander Mountain, never seen a broadhead(I use the mechs when I do). It is always up about mid shaft. But it's funny, on the others it's like the Carbon fiber skin delaminated from what's under it. The aluminum in the ACC I guess.

Any other good selections on arrows if I'm buying?

It is possible that given you specific bow setup that the arrows are significantly underspined, causing excessive arrow flex and ultimately seperation of the carbon wrap from the aluminum core.

A/C/Cs are pretty commonly known to be some of the best arrows made. If you have two seperate batches of them doing the same thing then it is probably something to do with your setup.

Please post the following
Bow, DL, poundage
Arrow length, tip weight.

Do you ever shoot for groups. Look likes an arrow crease from another arrow but you say your shooting different dots. I'd doubt it's anything coming out of the bow because you'd see severe arrow kick. I've shot ACC's for years and never had this happen other than grouping arrows.

OK....you are POSITIVE both batches are doing this? I would almost say the ones you got from Ebay may have been defective to begin with so the guy sold them anyway. Sad, but it happens. If you are 100% positive it's both batches, it's definetly something you are doing. I've been shooting those for a long time, as have guys at the shop and I've NEVER seen that before, well, not without an outside force such as another arrow.
