Wood is good!
Its not the size of the animal you hunt that matters. Its how you hunt the animal.

Carbon.......it's either straight, or it's broke.

I use wood for the most part.  I just started using aluminum again after years.  I'm playing around with Foc and you can do better with the aluminum. I don't use carbon. To me they are not traditional. Just my opinion.

Carbon, I can't stand aluminum but would like to try wood for hunting next year, so far I have only used wood for targets and really like the feel of it.

I can't vote-

All equally.

A day of bunny hunting will find me with all three in my back quiver.Changing to wood this year for deer hunting.Carbons for stumping.

It varies all the time,so I match the material to the job.

I would like to try some fiberglass fishing shafts for stump shooting and stuff. There was an article in TBM about it...

Aluminum here.
Unlike carbons which people say are either straight or broke, aluminums are either straight or bent in which case you can straighten them and keep on shooting.
