Easton FMJ camo/black same spine?
« on: August 09, 2016, 06:02:00 PM »
Hello gang, I'm thinking of trying FMJ shafts for my whitetail set up when I get back from elk hunting. I was wanting to try some that the local archery shop has (I can buy 3 at a time) but they only have the camo! If I spine with these and then order the black hammered metal graphic version through my favorite vendor (the Nocking Point) will the spine be the same?

Yes the spine will be the same and GPI is the same on a FMJ,just a different look.

I thought that the camo weigh more.

Camo and woodgrain usally add alittle GPI on your standard carbons over the black versions.But a FMJ is alumninum over a carbon core,the outside finish whether the black diamond plate or camo is just the finish look on the aluminum outer core,it doesn't add any weight on a FMJ.

I've literally hunted Whitetails with a quiver full of mixed camo and black at the same time.  You'll be fine, they're exactly the same.

Oxidized patterns on aluminium are the same. Wraps or paints on carbon do change it a bit though. I can't shoot gt 400 blacks and gt 400 camo cut the same.
