out of the pack I think Carbon Express are in my experence the most durable and tough arrow. the heritage is the best arrow shaft I have used ,, if you have to foot an arrow to make it tough means its a little week to start with

The most durable for me are the AD Hammerhead Trads with aluminum collars, brass inserts, unibushings and g-nocks. I have never broken one from shooting, but any arrow can break when sticking out the side of a big, live animal.

Wow, seems like the old Beman hunters without the outserts. I could see those becoming pretty popular in months to come...

I foot my Beman MFX Classics..........nobody said I "have" to.

But, it don't mean they're weak just because I choose to add a couple of inches of 2020 aluminum shafting to the business end. I would do that to any carbon arrow regardless of what make it is. It's added insurance just in case I hit a rock or something.

Don't know for sure.....but have been shooting arrow dynamics trads exclusively for nearly a decade for many reasons. ....durability is one.

Reason for wanting tough is.....??? If you want best buy in carbons going - buy Big Jim's GT Blems and who cares if you break a few at $43.00 a doz! Buy MFX,CX,ACC or axis and they may be tougher and better but you can have three doz blems for same price - there is no question that 3 doz GT blems will outlast 1 doz anything.
