    Re: carbon vs. aluminium

    anyways as i was saying...... aluminum arrows can blow up on you too. alot of the time, a carbon arrow blows up on someone because they arent checking their shafts. also in this day and age, a person doesnt need a 600 grain arrow for hunting. every animal i have harvested with a bow, has been shot with a light carbon shaft most with expandable heads. all have been complete passthroughs. twice as strong as aluminum,economical, small diameter, flatter trajectory(generally speaking). what more in a hunting arrow could one ask for???? all my own opinion of course....

    Tinney - have you tried altering your center shot to bring your groups more to the center?

    Yep. I am shooting a Martin Jag at 55# and 28" draw length. I have given up on carbon arrows and it will likely stay that way until I buy a Hoyt for next season

    I agree with Kirby... I switched to carbons about 5 years ago and for the last 2 years I've shot Gold Tips. They are unbelievable. One of the best.
    That's my opinion!!!

    I guess most people feel very confident about themselves on this site, they don't need to blow smoke about themselves. total uncalled for comment.

    Just about everyones comments are well taken. I guess I could be wrong!!!!, Like I have said before I still shoot GT's, I still have reservations about carbons are better call me a sceptic.
