I am deciding on some new arrows, and was wondering wich is better. I have been looking at beman carbon arrows and easton arrows and can't make up my mind on wich ones I should buy. If anyone has any comments I would appreciate them.

Depends on the type of bow you are shooting, draw weight and what you are shooting at.

I am shooting a pse bow, with a 65 percent letoff, 30 inch draw, and set at 70 pounds. I am shooting at targets to get ready for archery season.

I don't have any experience with either the beemans or eastons, I've been shooting SME Epsilons for several years but they've been bought by another company. I think the name is Carbon Tech, I have a call in to them to confirm.

Easton are good but there are others out there, I check with Fred at the Bow Shop because I can't remember the name of some very tough arrows.
I was going to order some Carbon Force Extreme and he gave me another choice that are better and more reasonably priced.

Look into the Gold Tips !! They are an excellent arrow and at a much better price then the others. I'm shooting. Gold Tip XT 5575's They are graphite and made in the good ole US of A.. I shot one through a 1" redwood fence and didn't damage the arrow at all.. Penatrated about 5" out the other side. I'm using a PSE Baby-G with a 29" draw shooting at 65 lbs..

You might try the RedHead brand sold by Bass Pro Shops. That is what I am currently shooting, Ans don't have a complaint yet. They are a little on the heavy side( can't remember exactly how much), but for $49.00 a dozen, they are pretty good.

One thing you may do .. If your going to buy them from your local pro shop.. Ask them if you can try a few of the brands they carry. Then buy what fits you best..  |

I've been shooting Carbon Express camo hunters for the past 2 yrs and love em, if your going to be 3-D shooting they won't stick in the targets because of special coating doesn't "burn" on foam like reg camo shafts. they are heavy, and you can even add weight tubes if needed, but the penetration is unequalled!!!!good luck, The Fishman
