Never shot any of those. Not to diverge but I'd either ask for an unlimited supply of the Byron F heavy hunters by gold tip or some of their traditionals in high tolerances.

Since my "fairy" also pays the bills I opt for traditional blems that shoot just as true and cost a bit less. Nobody has ever noticed the blemishes in the printing on them before.

I'd get a set of camo hunter aluminum and spend the money elsewhere. If I had to get carbons it would probably be grizzly stiks by ABS from what I hear they are very spine tolerant.

I shoot birch woodies but I was helping a friend set up his new recurve and he is shooting beman 340 center shots. Having shot carbons back in the day and still every once and a while I must say that I was inpressed by these arrows and will probably order 6 dozen or so of them just to have them. They are a very good feeling shaft with substantial weight for my bows very straight and long enough that I can make a 32 inch arrow out of them to accommodate my 31.5 inch draw.

Is there a wood arrow fairy? If so about 100 old Acme shafts spined 55-60 and around 400 grains found under my pillow would be great!!

Contrary to popular belief....you wont 'save money' by NOT buying carbons.   :thumbsup:  

They last longer than wood or aluminum.....i.e. they will take MUCH more abuse.

Arrow Dynamics.....same arrow I've been shooting for nearly 15 years.

I love the AC pro hunters outstanding arrows great tolerances for weight and straightness. Xnock and uni bushing big plus in my book. And there is something about the carbon aluminum core combo that makes these arrows not only tuff but they shoot consistently better then any of my other arrows.
Another arrow to look at for the same price is the Easton Injections I am going to try those this year. They use a deep six 8/32 thread you need to get the Aboyer heads or adapters to make these work. But super tuff for a all carbon arrow good mass weight and tight tolerances.
If there is anything I can do for let me know happy to help.

The 350 Maxima Reds with 200 gr up front shoot like darts out of my Morrison Cheyenne, 45#@28" and are consistently accurate shooting arrows.
