Gold Tip Warrior shafts
« on: June 13, 2017, 03:38:00 PM »
Anyone hunt with theres?  What's the quality like?  I found a dozen in my spine for about $50 and am thinking about getting them.  I have been shooting aluminums but always end up bending them.

Ive been playing with some 700s in my whip.  They are much lighter in weight just a little light for hunting for me.  They tune and fly well-- seem to shed carbon dust on my hands, but for 50 bucks...

If you want a high FOC shaft Warriors  are the winner. They are pretty light as mentioned by the rifleman, but that allows the hunter to load up the tip weight. I shoot them in 400 spine to 600 spine on my various bows. They are pretty tough, dirt cheap, fly well, and tune like any other carbon.

Get them. Good luck.

I have been playing with some 500's and find nothing but good so far.  After you fletch or crest them, you could polish the remaining shaft with car wax to get the carbon dust down.  They accept weed eater line easily to weight them up

Don't know about the other sizes but I bought a couple doz 700s for  my wife, and my work partner did the same. Neither him nor I will ever buy them again. The 700s have extremely thin walls and are very brittle. She's broke two on my bag target alone. My work partner had the same experience.

I like them and have had good luck with them.  Last season I shot the 400's and had 250 up front to get them to fly well- but this year I have switched to 500's and have added overall weight with aquarium tubing and weed eater line and 205 up front.  This gives me a total arrow weight of 650.  I've only broke 2 total.  One trying to remove a incert w a drill bit and one in a deer.

Same experience for my daughter out of her 35lb Sage.  Will be looking for something else.
