No, but the Hunter is heavier w/ it's weight forward design. It's camo starts about....6" from the nock, so the nock end is lighter.

As the other have mentioned, I personally wouldn't choose the Eastons or the Bemans that you mentioned. I believe Carbon Express to be the top choice!

Sounds like everybody likes the maxima hunters. Don't they have a crossweave finish? Are they quiet when drawn back through a wisker biscuit?

I also use the Carbon Express Maxima. I switched to them this year. I don't use a whisker biscuit so I don't know how it would sound in it, but they didn't make any more noise than my previous arrrow.

[align=left]I used the GT XT Hunters for several years and found them to be quite good. Just bought and used the new Maxima Hunter 350's this year and they seem to be very sturdy. Two does, a 9 pt buck, a missed turkeyand no damage to the arrows. Of course any arrow is much more accurate than I am but I do like the FOC Maxima Hunter's. [/align]

I use the Maximas with a whisker biscuit and haven't been disappointed. It works fine. I am sure the hunters would be a bit quieter in the biscuit because of the camo.

What about Carbon Express Terminator Lights? They are the same weight as my Goldtips.
