Impressive Gold tip photo
« on: April 19, 2013, 04:45:19 PM »
I just saw this on archery talk and thought i would share. This image shows a 225 lb guy standing on 3 of our arrows. We attempted to do this with our competitors arrows at the same spine and they blew into pieces. We took one of our sales reps that weighs 165 and he can stand on 2 and have it support him, 3 of the competitors blew up again. The arrows are the Pro Hunters 5575/400."

I'm having some doubts about my Easton Axis 400.

runied one on a pebble in the sand, I shot low at the target at 50 yards and skipped it in the sand into the target, it hit a small pebble and ruined the arrow at the end of the insert :o

I like my gold-tip XT Hunters. They feel light, strong, and no crappy clear-coat on the shaft :chuckle:

I don't see how this "test" is relevant though.

:yeah:
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

seems like sometimes when you put one in the boiler room the shoulder blade/muscles will come back an kind cut your arrow...if they can bend like this they might hold up better and help keep your arrow whole  :dunno: cept ive had gold tips break tho soo who knows

Interesting, I was thinking my gold tips weren't so tough after two broke while taking down my first archery buck. It died mind you, but cost me some $.
