tednugefan Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 i'm lookin to get some new arrows. what are some good ones that arent really exspensive. i'm lookin to spend around 60-70 dollars. i have a draw length of 30 and pull back 60 lbs. any suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koonie Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Carbon express terminators, Beman Ics hunters, and Gold tips are all very good arrows in that price range. Incidently I went for very expensive arrows this year. I got the Carbon Express Aramid KV. They cost about $170 per dozen. I can live with that if they last a long time but like a moron I shot a group on Thursday and got a robinhood at 50 yards. $34 down the drain.

Hula_Grub Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Ted- check out the Cabelas stalker extremes. $60 a dozen for carbon arrows. I shoot the weight and draw length as you, and I'm more than accurate enough with the cabelas arrows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonBo Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Several different models in the Carbon Express line to fill your needs. Weight forward technology can't be beat for keeping those broadheads flying straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USPENAMC Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 i was going into a HSOforum search for custom cut arrows or something like that where they will cut and make a 12 arrows for your pull weight, lenght and vanes as you like them for like 100 bucks sent to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliepete2 Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 DonBo....this new 'weight forward' technology advertising has been cracking me up. You don't have to spend big bucks on arrows, just use 125 grain broadheads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Cowboy Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 I second the Cabelas carbon arrows. Look at the specs and they are made better than I can shoot to know a difference. To me they shoot the same as the big buck maxima hunters I bought before..(not again) The Archery guy at Cabelas said they are made by I think it was Easton. good specs carbon, pre-fletched with blazer vanes for about $60 a dozen to me it a no brainer. The only negative is getting them. This Sat. morning I made a special trip to get some and they are sold out. I was really annoyed by that and asked the sales rep. how you can be sold out on sat morning. he blamed it on the game fair and said he was more upset than I was because he will have to explain it to over 50 more guys just like me before the end of the day. so I guess they are pretty popular. I know one thing it sure stings a lot less when you lose one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonBo Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Gold tips are great arrows, but I don't think they are in his price range of $60-$70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koonie Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Well I sure wasn't skill. It was a combo of dumb luck and bad luck. By the way: shutty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoozebutton Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I've been shooting Beman's for 5 years now and they shoot great for me. I bought 2 dozen when they were on sale and still have 14 left but once they run out I might try the Cabela's. The specs are so close on all the carbon arrows that I think only a tournament archer could tell the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Quast Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 As you can tell by my username I shoot Goldtips and I am continuing to but not the high buck ones instead I found a dozen fletched for 50 bucks on www.keysonecountrystore.com they are called Vapor Hunters and are now made by Goldtip I just got my dozen and they shoot and pattern awesome.

fishinmajishin Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Goldtip... Light/Straight/Strong. Expedition Hunter 5575 should do you fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Quast Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Koonie I believe Blackhawk made these prior to Goldtip buying out the company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koonie Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 If I sell my bow at the end of the season again I might sell the arrows with it and go with the goldtips for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
