One more vote for Gold Tip 35/55's here too.
Black shaft XT and Expedition hunters are tuff as nails and not too bad on the wallet either!

CX Heritage 250's with 100 gr insert and 150 gr heads----tough shafts and worse to loose when you know they have so much life left in them.

Nope.

Axis 500's for me and my 64" widow deer getter.

I've been shooting Beman/Easton ICS shafts since 2001.

I really dislike carbons twice last year while I was pulling arrows out of 3-D targets I've gotten carbon splinters in my hand from them. Some like them, I don't Frank

BEman MFX TEam Realtree and Classics. Great shafts!

No, although sometimes I think I am the last traditional bowhunter on the planet who doesn't! Don

I'll sometimes shoot carbons for 3-D where long distance is the norm. Being lighter for a given spine range they are a modern tool that gives a competitive edge for competition (fly faster and flatter) and are accepted at most shoots. That said, I don't consider carbon arrows to be traditional archery gear, don't use them for my traditional archery interests (hunting and simple 'fun' shooting) and don't plan on changing my mind about that. To each his own.

I love making and shooting wood arrows...but you can't argue with how carbons shoot and tune up with weight forward. Love the CE 250 shafts at 11gpi and 225gr tips.

Not any more. I had some CX Heritage 250's and just could not get them to fly right for me. I shoot wood with occassional Easton Alum. arrows.

Do you shoot a LB or a recurve Jcar? What poundage?

Ybuck · « **Reply #35 on:** March 21, 2009, 05:08:00 PM »

Beman Venture 500's

Snag, I shoot a Robertson longbow 58# (at that time) with the CX 250's. That was about a year ago and just gave up on them and made the switch to wood and alum. The alum and wood fly great! Thanks John

I shoot AT carbons.
Sometimes I hit them!

George D. Stout · « **Reply #38 on:** March 21, 2009, 06:31:00 PM »

I like my Legacy aluminums with average front of center 8^).
