I have Vapor Carbonwood 2000s, and I'm looking for replacements. Are Goldtip 3555 and Carbon Express 90's equilvalent? Any help is appreciated...... DB

I have some Carbonwood 2000's and love them, still wish they made them. They are .500 spine and weigh 8.2 gpi. A GT 3555 Trad arrow is .500 spine and weighs 8.6 gpi. I shoot CE 150 Heritage shafts too, they are .487 spine and weigh 10.0 gpi. In my experience, I have found that my Carbonwood 2000's and a GT 3555 Trad bareshaft tune the same at the same lengths with the identical weight up front.

Curious – If Carbonwood 2000s are .500 spine deflection, and 3000s are .400 spine deflection, I assume the 4000s are .300 spine deflection???
Thanx for any input…

I was a huge carbonwood fan....I am sad too that they are no longer available.
I tried a bunch of carbons, some mentioned about and didn't like them for various reasons.
The good news is I have finally found the BEMAN MFXs. I love them. I shoot a little heavier bow and use the 340s. But they do have 500s. I love the HITS heavy inserts system too. I frankly wasn't sure I would. I love them so much, I don't think I would switch back if a miracle happened and carbonwoods came back.
