Carbon express heritage series arrows

[MERGANZER]

I need to order some of these.  They really fly well out of the new bow but the shop I will eventually use is on vacation.   Does anyone have any info on Ye Olde Archery at all on service and quality?  Also what have you heard on these arrow as far as durability?  Thanks in advance.

On the CE Heritage series.  Only problem I have noticed is the nocks they come with. They have a problem of coming out to easily.  I throw them away and replace them with Bohning Signatures.

I also fletch with bright color or white because camo shaft will disappear on you.

all i shoot very tough ,ditto what John said Big Jim always has some in stock!

[Doc Pain]

I use em and love em.  Just got a sale paper and 3 Rivers is carrying them again.

I have had great experence with the CX150, Les is right about the nocks comming out.
I replace the nocks with Gold Tip and they never come out? Ken

With 5 sizes available you'll have no problem finding one to shoot.  Great tuff shaft.

[cacciatore]

My shaft of choice,very consistent spine.

[Zbearclaw]

I have had awesome results with the 250 and now the 350.

Big Jim has great prices, especially if you catch a sale.

I have a new dozen 350's I have wrapped with reflective wraps and fletched, I just need to cut and glue so I can take them to Tejon in 8 days...

[Killdeer]

Consistent?
I wish, as I have bought two dozens of the 150s and they were completely different. Couldn't use the second dozen, even with 100 grain inserts and 250 grain points on a full length shaft. The first dozen worked like a charm.

I love the toughness and the finish. Very nice looking shaft. I am a bit wary of them now, though. It is hard to carry around a spine tester at a shoot, but I would want to test the next batch I bought before I bought it.

I have just about every brand of carbon, and the CE Heritage wins hands down for durability. They have a good overall mass weight. They tune extremely well!  
Killdeer, I'm surprised at your experience. They really are a good shaft. You might consider calling carbon express, and telling them about the spine issues. They might be willing to correct the problem.

Never thought of that...

I usually just eat stuff like that, but maybe I should stop being such a wuss. Part of my trouble is the 28" centered odd weight system that they have switched to for measuring carbons. I wish someone would tell me what a 150 should deflect to, or weight with the old fashioned spine testers I grew up with.

Anybody? 26" and two pounds?
Please don't make me beg.
OK, I'm begging!!

Killie, a Heritage 150 should spine at about 65# when converted to wood spine standards.  Their 28" deflection is also listed at .487 if that helps you any.

[Killdeer]

That is exactly what I needed! Thank you!

I have tried Easton, Gold Tip, and now I'm back to where I started with these Heritage shafts.  By far the most durable shaft I've tried.

[LimbLover]

I buy 250 and 350 shafts at random all the time and I've never experienced a consistency problem. Then again I've never heard 2 dozen at once either.

[Gil Verwey]

Very tough arrows. I get mine from Harrelson Archery. I buy shafts on the auction site. I found they are very stiff arrows. I put my 150s on a spine tester and they showed 87#. I use 150s on a 60# bow with 350 up front.

Killdeer,

I usually find out the arrow specs from the manufactures site.  For CE it is here  http://www.carbonexpressarrows.com/cms/node/75


Then I use Stu's calculator and punch the 28" spine number in the little box in the lower left  to calculated the poundage.

And after all that you get the answer 65 which is what Braveheart said :-)

Anyway if you find other arrows you can use my method or use yours and just ask :-)  

Whatever works...
