Joe,
While you may think your ability does not warrant the ACC's, many might think otherwise. You should always shoot the best, most consistant arrow you can afford. I believe Len in MD has a theory about the archery triangle, of which arrows are one of the components. I will try to find a link here.

I know what you are talking about, Len's Tuning Trilogy-tune the bow, arrow, and archer. I can assure you the archer needs the most tuning!;)

I have, however, always believed the the arrows were very important, moreso than the specific bow being shot. I see lots of guys spend almost $1000 on a bow, sight, rest, etc. and then scimp on the arrows.

By joining a club last year, and getting to shoot more at long range than I have in some time (I used to live on 6 acres and could shoot to 50 yards daily, then the wife and kids wanted to move to town[:@]) I know there was improvement. Just have to rededicate to get better.

hmmm, i didn't find the a/c kinetic shaft listed any longer on easton's website. are you sure they are still being made? it really doesn't matter to me, i guess. correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't the a/c kinetic shaft just a beman metal matrix in camo? i don't really think that the camo warrants an extra $40 per dz or so...:)

Was in the bow shop last week and one of the kids that works there said he just ordered 2 dozen Kinetics because they were no longer making them.

well, i guess that confirms it then. [8D]

You could also do this. Equally expensive, somewhat less scary.;)
