Hi Gang:
I know this has been covered plenty of times, but here goes:
In looking over this topic, it seems most people are using footed carbons to stump shoot. I have never shot carbons, and frankly do not want to spend the money.
I hunt with aluminum, and it seems crazy to stump shoot those, they'd bend in a heartbeat.
So, I use cedar. The problem is, with steel blunts, I'm breaking EVERY shaft at the tip.
So I use Flu-Flus: not as many breaks, but the trajectory is different. I'd rather use the "standard" feathers, not flu-flus.
If I stay away from carbons, what works best for you? I'm thinking of trying those rubber blunts from Three-Rivers, thinking that might save some arrows, because this is crazy! I took one of the kids out for a while today, we had a blast, but I came home with a quiver full of kindling.
Or is time to bite the bullet and go to carbon?
Thanks,
Rich
