N-fused arrows

[huntnfmly]

This is probably a stupid ? but i am new to bow hunting so bear with me.The n-fused arrows sound like the arrows i will get but i am confused when they say they are lighter but dont you still have to shoot certain weight arrows?And do you get better penatration with them because the dia. is smaller so the weight is more concentrated on a smaller area?I promise to stop asking stupid ? soon but i know a lot of you are very knowledgable so thanks in advance

I switched to those arrows last year and love them. Don't know a lot about all the weight stuff but I shoot 340's through my 70lb Dxt and have no problems, and for penetration I had a complete pass thru at 74 yards this year on an elk. Hope any of this helps.

I didn't see any questions in there that I didn't have at one time or another along the way, so I'll help out.  Those arrows are excellent for hunting as well as target arrows.  The "lighter" weight they are talking about is that each individual nano-tube is stronger than the predecessor Axis arrows' carbon fibers.  Therefore, you get an arrow that is marginally lighter (meaning a little faster and flatter shooting) than those same arrows had before.  They're not much lighter, however, so you can throw that out as advertising play.  As for the question about the regulations, your total arrow/broadhead weight has to be over 300 grains AND the combination must weigh at least 6 grains per pound of bow draw weight.  Thus, a 70 pound bow must have a 420 grain arrow to be legal.  The Axis 340 will weigh roughly 423 grains with 2" Blazer vanes and 100 grain broadheads.  This would be legal and effective in up to a 70 pound bow.  If you use 125 grain heads and a 70 pound bow, then you'll want to go with the Axis 300 arrows to get enough arrow spine to make them controllable.  Then your weight will jump up to around 475 grains, and you'll be talking massive penetration and killing ability.

As for your second question, you are right on the money.  It sounds like a trivial point, but it's not.  That little bit of diameter change is big in penetration differences.

Keep on asking.... once you run out of things to know, then you'll be the one with answers that others can come to.

I picked up some of these arrows when I bought my Alphamax and I really like them.

This is what I have switched to from Gtip Pros.  I have shot a ton of them in the last 2-mos and no problems.  After all those shots they are still perfectly straight, no cracks, splits, etc.  They consolidate their wall strength by reducing the over-all diameter and using the material saved to increase the shaft wall thickness, inside the reduced diameter arrow.  They are tough little monkeys!

They are a great arrow hands down

If i get these will i have to change my meduim size wisker bisquit?

[Hoytstaffshooter83]

if you have a large yes

[SpokaneSlayer]

What about a medium?

What about a medium?

You talking about a whisker biscuit. The n fused should be fine in a medium whisker biscuit.

Yes I was.  Thanks.
