I shoot wood and I can say that they are easier to for me to get set up.And they feel natural to shoot.

 And accuracy is in the shooter not the arrow! you can have the best most expensive gear,and if you don't have good form and can't shoot it won't make a difference what arrow you use.
 
  Think of the natives in New Guinea( I may have spelled that wrong)they use unfinished branches and a leaf for a fletching and they can hit a monkey jumping from branch to branch with ease.Not with carbon or aluminum,but a branch!

 And thats all I have to say on that-Forrest Gump
Some people live an entire lifetime and wonder if they have ever made a
difference in the world, but the Marines don’t have that problem.

I have shot wood for a long time now and have found that good quality wood arrows are generally more accurate than I am capable of holding. I have also shot aluminum with good results but just prefer the wood - can't explain exactly what it is, but wood is special. I have no experience with carbon.

I think with wood, as mentioned several times above, it is in the quality of materials and how they are put together.

The big thing for me with wood arrows is they are a great deal of fun to build. I enjoy the time they take and love watching them fly when finished.

You got to have good shafts to start with.
