Ever thought about Easton Axis or CE Maxima Hunters?

I agree with Roskoe first make sure the tuning with the new string/cables is done and give the new parts time to stretch and "break in" then tune the bow and the make sure your arrows are spined correctly. The Fletching will help stabilize but will probably not completely correct the problems you are having.

yes i thought about the maxima's. However my original goal was to get a very light arrow allowing my 7 pin tru glo sight seperation to range from 20-80 yards. Well having a 31" is not a good thing in this instance as i can only get 20-75[:@]. So the maxima's (costing about $50 more per dozen) would give me the same results (got a dozen carbons on ebay for $50) and would not really benefit me. They are better quality, but I don't think shooting them will improve my accuracy enough to justify the cost. do you think it would?

JN Turk - you might be surprised how much better you can shoot with premium arrows. I know someone who went from tennis ball size groups to golf ball size groups just by upgrading from a Walmart economy arrow to a premium one.

Vabowman - I was trying to do the math on the degree of offset on my Blitz, and it comes out to about 4 degrees. That's about the most I can get with the small diameter Axis shafts, and still have good fletching contact all along the base of the Blazer.

thanks Roskoe!! I went with the straight 1 deg because I already had 12 arrows done this way so I just did six more, we'll see how they fly with BH!! Oh yeh, I got a question, do you shoot a QAD rest??

Yes. Was running a Whisker Biscuit last year, and switched to the QAD in December. It's a little faster and a little more forgiving.

yeh I like mine too, but there seems to be a slight clicking noise when I draw is this normal, I always have it locked into place before I draw, but it still clicks on the initial draw and then I don't here it anymore.

in your opinion, do you feel that going from a carbon express terminator lite arrow to an axis or maxima i would have great improvements with arrow flight?
