“instinctive archery” is more like playing the violin. Without practice you may remember the mechanics, but you will not be a virtuoso.

I have used them for years.One of the things i really love is the ability to tune them with the brass weights.I can load the tip for some heavy hitters,like 250 extra grains up front.Makes for one punch of an arrow,and with an inch of a 2117 shaft for a foot i have never broken one.

I like them a lot. I shoot them in most of my bows. I like the dynamics a bit better out of the recurves.

A year ago I made up some carbons for the first time.  5575 Gold Tip Traditional shafts and shot them out of my 54# Great Northern Critter Gitter.  They shot really nice.  That being said, I'm going back to wood arrows.  Just like the "romance" of a good wood arrow in flight.

I love mine! I've been shooting the GT Kinetics front loaded with an extra 30 grains with their weight system. I think their weight system makes them the most verastile shaft in the carbon arrow market. It really makes it easy to fine tune the spine of your arrows to fit each shooter and bow set-up. Love those skinny shafts too! Great for penetration, just wish they made them in the wood grain too.

In my personal opinion they are not as tough as carbon express heritage or beman ICS. Now before some (expert) gets their panties in a wad IM saying in my personal experience shooting heavier weight bows the gold tips ive tried split much easier than some other shafts.

I like them, but after stump shooting it always seems like I'm glueing inserts back in. What kind of glue are you using?

Gold Tip 35/55 trads are (about) all I shoot....I do fling a cedar every now and then.
