I use fatboys outta my recurve.  they saved me a few points on 3D ranges, but are pretty much lifesavers for spot shoots. just be careful, rumor has it that they are easier to shoot robinhoods with... haven't quite found that out myself yet  ;)   good luck

Because of diameter you need a bow cut past center or you might not be able to get them tuned without trouble.The Carbon Tech Hippos are a much tougher shaft than the fat boys but do cost more.I use the Hippos from a 21st Century that was set up just for fat arrows.They are too stiff for most of my other bows except my metal risered bows useing rest.jmo
....Quality deer management means shooting them before they get tough....
