Easton full metal jackets.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Plus 1 for what he said.

I'll add that Goldtip are so tough compared to Carbon Express is not even close. I stopped using Carbon Express because even with their collars they aren't tough at all. The fact that they need a collar should give that away. 

I've used Easton, Beaman, Carbon Express and Goldtip. I will never switch from XT Hunters again.

That old of technology can't possibly be enough for the elk and deer of today!  :chuckle: haven't you heard they wear armor now and you need 80 lb draw and 67$ carbon arrows to kill anything!  :chuckle:

IMO new aluminum are some of the best arrows for staightness and consistency , but I only get a few shots before I screw them up and bend or dent them.  :tung:

Black Eagle rampage arrows in .001" tolerance. Built for higher FOC and massive penetration.

I've been enjoying my BEA Spartans but for no good reason I'm likely going to try Elements to see how they compare to the Trophy Ridge arrows I used to shoot.
