if you think of how many people shoot carbon arrows and how many get arrows threw the hand there might be .0004% :chuckle: that get it done to them. i shoot and love goldtip arrows you won't be disapointed with them they are a little more weight because of the paint but only like .3-5 grains per " just flex them untill you get a good bend and thendo a circle motion and lisen for grinding. also a lot of people shoot way under spinned arrows and that is very bad trying to gain speed and get a arrow threw the hand

I think carp is right, most if the arrows through the arm are from being under spined. I have found with mine I really pay attention to stress lines they have shown up around the nock and around the tip. Just look at them everytime you shoot, you'll be fine.

I did a 3-D shoot this weekend and a buddy of mine smacked my arrow on one of the shots. I didn't think to check it because I clack my arrows together all the time and nothing ever comes of it. He tells me to flex it so I did and the shaft broke in half!  The arrow appeared to be fine and showed no signs of anything wrong with it until I put a bend in the shaft. It Kinda freaked me out and I'm really glad I didn't shoot it. It could have been a really bad weekend. I will be checking my arrows a lot more often from now on!
Team nubby!
