You definitely need new arrows and should sell the reds to me at a drastically reduced price.
You caught me on the right day I guess  :chuckle:

Sell the Maximas and go back to FMJ's, better arrow IMO.

Not to thread jack but I have 7 29in maxima red finished weight of 308 without tip. If anyone wants them, best offer over $40 can have them.

Good price and right length, but these are not Red's.

I think if you do some tuning you are going to like the Red's. I switched over last year and after getting them tuned to my bow, I really like them. Only thing I don't like is they seem to be fairly brittle and easy to break and fletching them is a pain. Only glue I can get to hold is AAE Max Bond.

I would think your FOC would decrease with the drop in point weight, but stiffening the spine may cure the problem. Its odd that the lighter arrow is dropping more.
Yup lighter arrow has a higher foc, which can cause a drop at distance.
