where to buy aluminum arrows
« on: August 30, 2012, 12:52:00 AM »
I was wondering where to look at aluminum arrows at?  Kustom King and Big Jims don't list my size and I wanted to do some more price checking before ordering from 3 Rivers.  I shoot 31" 2317 Easton Camo Hunters.

I've bought "many" dozens from the auction site. Almost all the local shop's here only offer carbons.

I get my hard to find 2212 Eclipse X7 arrow shafts from Bowhunters Superstore in Wellsville, Pennsylvania.

I checked their site and they carry Easton Camo Hunter 2317s in completed arrows and shafting. Google their site since I can't leave a public link.
Blacktail TD Recurve: 66", 42# @ 30". Arrow: 32", 2212. PW: 75 Grains. AW: 421 Grains. GPP: 10.02

Wapitrod,

3Rivers has the ones you are looking for. As well as 2 other types of Easton aluminum shafts.

The big auction site works well for me, and I have found a lot listed by people who are selling off old inventory. A few years ago,  I remember seeing someone list 10 dozen 2317s, and the listing went for just over $200.  I shot them at the time, and felt like I had just missed the deal of a lifetime!
Life is a whole lot easier when you just plow around the stump.

Bass Pro sells some types of aluminum arrows pretty cheap (like $55/dozen) since not a lot of people buy them they might not be in stock anymore. worth checking out though

I'll second Night Wing. I also frequently get discount codes in my email for that vendor as well so sign up with them and time your purchases.

Are you after shafts or completed arrow?  If shafts I would get Easton Blues or Jazz from Bowhunter's Superstore for $29/doz.  They are blue or purple but look sharp.  I just assume have that as camo or fake looking wood grain.  I wish they would bring back the Autumn Orange shafts.

I hear you on the Autumn Orange.  I still have some of the old Bear 8.8mm Shafts in that color.  Easton made them for bear, a couple of them still have blood on them from 20yrs ago or more.

I agree with PeteA, I get 99% of my supplies from them. You can buy as many as you like as they are marked per shaft...PR
