footing???
« on: March 13, 2009, 08:27:00 AM »
Anybody know what size aluminum shaft to use when footing a Blackhawk Vapor Carbonwood 3000?


There is a post from a few days ago that gives sizes for various shafts, but it doesn't list the Blackhawks.

Thanks,
Charlie

I used 2117 Eastons on the Carbonwood. I had some 2219 Tru Flite and they fit on the black carbon but not the wood grain.

2117 fit great on both black carbon and carbon wood 3000.

LOL! Thats true Oldskool! I busted 3 wood arrows in just one round of shooting the other day.

Oldskool used his footed carbons and busted the heck outta everything he hit. So much so his blunt was completely mushroomed out, but the arrow held up.

Also, I happened to have two dozen carbon shafts sitting in the garage with the correect spine. No sense in spending money on wood shafts when I already had the carbons available.

Thanks for the input fellas,
-Charlie
