RE: carbon arrow choices
I'm looking for info too....
When I pick up my new '03 Pat. Dually, I'm thinking of getting carbons. The shop will give me a deal on the stuff they sell (Gold Tips, XTs, and the Easton Excel, Axis, Lightspeed, etc.) Bow will be set at 60# max, arrow length will probably be around 31 or 32" (on a 30" draw). Rest will probably either be an HHA TN1000 (their new drop-away) or a Whisker Biscuit). I'll be using Rocky Ironhead 125's (got a stockpile of them..not gonna switch for a while). *Edited - figured out how to use and read the shaft selector (helped when I saw an older style chart* What do you guys think of using the LightSpeeds or Excels for hunting? |
RE: carbon arrow choices
I'm thinking of using the Easton Axis as well but I'm not sure what size to use yet ....For Patriot Dually 04

I used the Excel this year and was very pleased. I have heard very posistive reviews on the Axis shafts as well. Both are good choices.

RE: carbon arrow choices
My best advice is NOT to skimp on arrowshafts. That is your delivery system for broadheads. You are better off spending less on a stabilizer or quiver, or sight or something else than skimping on arrow shafts.
That said.... I would recommend A/C/Cs over all others. Nothing touches them for conistency in spine, weight ,and straightness from shaft to shaft, dozen to dozen. In an all or composite carbon shaft I would recommend the Carbon Express 3D & Terminator Selects, Goldtip 3D Pro's, Beman ICS Hunters, and any of the Easton C2 construction shafts (Epic, Evolution, the new 2004 Camo shafts, etc). Currently I believe the new ST AXIS shafts to be very promising, and if they can hold their tolerances, I can see these being the "next big thing" in carbons. I've been pounding the crap out of mine and they are taking everything in stride so far. Very impressive. |
