    I still shoot some old PC'S when messing around, backyard stuff. I had them made up when Rainy Day was open and you could shoot indoors.

    last year carbon impact arrows and stricknine broadhead, it's a 125 grain 2 inch expandable, and leave a huge hole, this year I've changed a few things around and am shooting gold tip pro hunter arrow's and thinking about dropping down to a 100 grain broadhead. if you want i can go threw my bucket of old arrow's and get you a bunch, i have alot of old carbon arrow's i ve shot threw the years and have no need for anymore, some need insert's others might need new fletching which i can throw on for you if you want i finally picked up a jig this year and started making my own arrow's, no more having to run to an archery shop and have them do them up for me. i actually have little to no use for them and would much rather see them put to use then get trashed. some are the old style with outserts though.

    My buddy just bought some carbon arrows from Dicks. He got 12 for $40. He's tight on money and bought a bow from another friend. We went to sight it in last night and the arrows he bought from Dicks split in the target deer. One arrow had the field point pushed back into the arrow and 2 others broke off in the deer. Do not buy those arrows if your bow shoots very fast. They are probably ok for a youth bow.

    you should check the spine of the arrow and match that to your draw weight and length of your arrows to the bow your shooting. most shops have a spine chart. my bow and setup calls for a 400 spine in a beeman ics were yours might call for a 300 ics chech eastons web sight im sure the have a spine chart for diffrent set up's .

    I'll let him know that, i have never had a single problem with a Walmart Arrow, bought 4560s, threw a tip on it and can shoot quarters at 20-30 yards no BS. The Dick's ones just looked cheap to me.

    rich, right, i wish bro. If i was rich, you think i'd be hunting with you? lol. Na i just save money. I'm just lucky i don't got many payments and bills.. it ill catch up soon. yea, i'll shoot 40-45 at a doe, but i ain't taking no chance at bucks. If i don't shoot him, i know he will still be around next time. No point in wounding and never finding it.
