You Guys Decide
 
Ok I picked up my 04 Black Knight today and have it set up minus a string loop will get that tomorrow.

The set up so far is BK2 60# 28" draw.
MZE
Extreme 100 (for now as my Hogg-it is on the Pat Dually till after the Winter Nationals)

X-RingStabilizer.

Ok what I want you guys to do is choose what arrows I should use.
Now what ever arrow gets the most showing will be the one I get.
Sound fair enough to you guys.

Gold Tip 5575 XT's or 2314 X7 Eclipse:D The aluminum arrows are very uniform and accurate and reasonably tough, line cutter size a plus, will make your bow smoother at the shot. The X7's should weigh around 440 grains with the 90 grain glue in nibbs. Price on the X7 shafts is under $60.00!!! Straightness on the X7's is +/- .001 inches!!!! Speed out of your bow with the X7's will be very close to 275 fps. ;)

Oh I forgot to mention the arrows will only be 26" long.


Russ.
These will solely be hunting arrows for the up coming bacon fest;)

How bout the Gold Tip 3-D Pro 75/95's, that is what I am using (Rack-Attack suggested) and I couldn't be more pleased with them.

I vote for the new Easton Axis !

CX Terminator Select 6075. It weighs 10.7 grains per inch which is almost identical in weight to the 2314 but it's all nice and carbon;) I haven't done much testing with them but I expect them to not only be tough as nails but also hold their spine longer, due to the thickness of the wall. It should make an awesome hunting shafet. Good lord willing I will able to tell you this time next year after I have put them through 5-10 deer:) Hopefully the latter:D

Give the Axis a try if not that shaft then the carbon express CX have served me very well the last year so they are another great choice!

Easton ST Axis!

I sure do love my ACC's 349's as tough a shaft as there is around yes they are a little high but they are tough I have one arrow that has taken 12 deer and another with 10 and both are still good .

Well, I was in the same boat. I couldn't decide what I wanted to do. Since this new bow is going to be my soul hunting rig"aka MeatAxe" I decided to go with the Easton Axis. From all the reports I've been reading, this shaft will be incredible for hunting. Mine should be here tomorrow if the weather doesn't slow things down.

If you want to stick with a traditional carbon, I would have to say, Carbon Xpress CX's. For the money, straightness and weight are tough to beat there. I've got a bad taste in my mouth about Gold Tips the last couple years and unless they pull a rabbit out their hat, I wont go back to them for a long time.
