RE: Carbon arrow Q's
Grindero,
I have shot the Beman ICS Hunters (the black shafts) and liked them a lot. Very smooth finish and quite tough. They make a great hunting shaft. I heard that the camo version had some problems with the finish wearing off or fusing to the insides of targets. Supposedly Beman has improved the camo this year.

RE: Carbon arrow Q's
I started shooting Gametracker this fall, There are so many benifits when switching from alum, to carbon. I usaully only shot carbon/aluminum for competing, ACE's. I decided after a long carbon vs Aluminum debate that it was time I shot carbons for hunting. So bought some Terminator hunters from my work, got 5" feathers , and fletched up a doz.
I am very impressed with them, I can't wait to buy a new compound and shoot them through it. For now I have only shot them through My Coyote recurve and have gained much penetration and lost 80 grains off of my arrow so they are slightly faster. As for toughness any full weaved carbon arrow will whoop any aluminum, Alum/carbon from my own experience.
Good shooting.

RE: Carbon arrow Q's
Ok, I was going to post it in another thread, but will just do it here...
Ok, here's my setup. PSE Team Fitzgerald Nova, set to the max on poundage (prob. around 65), 29" draw length. Gonna go with a TM Hunter rest, and a release loop on the string. Use a TruFire caliper release.
I've decided on Game Tracker Carbon Express 300 arrows, prob. 30" in length (always heard add 1" to DL to get proper arrow length). Gonna stick with my 125 gr. Muzzy 3 blades.
Ok you bow nuts, how's that setup sound?
