SUPER CARBON ARROWS from Parker.
Has anyone had EXTENSIVE experience with the arrows that parker sells with their bow called the super carbons.
They have several different sizes. But they seem priced really reasonable. I was given some to demo and I will give my input when I test them out. I was curious to the performance and durability.

RE: SUPER CARBON ARROWS from Parker.
I'm no bow or arrow specialist and i don't know if my experience with the super carbons would be classified extensive or not but i absolutely love the supercarbon shafts. On the recomendation of a close friend i tried these shafts out and made a switch from Goldtips to Supercarbons. I'm not bashing the Goldtips here because i've used the 5575xts exclusively for years and they have always got the job done but i like the Supercarbons much better. The one problem i had with Goldtips were that out of the last several dozen i purchased i would always have several shafts that were bad (split/warped) that i would have to send back, however goldtip quickly took care of the problem and replaced the bad shafts with good ones so i really can't complain and i would buy and use them again if i had to.
As for the Supercarbons i've been using them for about 2 years now and i have found them to be a top notch carbon shaft. I use the Magums with my hunting set-up and the Supremes with my target bow. I have found them to be very durable and i haven't had any tuning problems with them using broadheads. I have one magnum arrow that i have taken 3 deer with and i'm still using that shaft just to give an ideal of the toughness of it. I order direct from Nationwide archery which is Parker owned and located next to the Parker facility. I have purchased 4 dozen to date and each dozen i have purchased have been very consistent in straightness and i have yet to have one out of a dozen that was warped or split. These are only my opinions and experiences with these shafts as i'm sure others may have different ones. As you can see i'm sold on super carbons and i would recommend them to anyone looking for a quality carbon shaft.
