I am also primarily a woody shooter but I have tried them all. I hunt with wooden shafts and shoot 3D with carbons only because they are more durable.

When I order a dozen POC's I expect that at best I will get 8 of them to fly fairly the same. I do not try to get them all flying the same because it takes too much effort and is usually time wasted. What I do do is test them with different broadheads until a given arrow flies well from one of my hunting bows then I mark the shaft for that bow(s). Sometimes they will fly true from more than one bow. My quiver during hunting season will rarely have two arrows that look the same and they will be tipped with two or even three different broadheads. Yes sir, I love the woodies the most too and this is how I get around the tuning frustration.

BTW, any wooden arrow that seems to be more difficult than most I will fletch it as a flu flu and it becomes a squirrel arrow. No big deal if I miss a tree rat and break or lose it.

Wood arrows for me all the way, to me wood arrows are a perfect match for a longbow.
