Title: Easton Full Metal Jackets, what Fletchings?
Post by: TeacherMan on February 13, 2009, 04:47:23 PM: I'm looking at ordering some new arrows, I've decided I like the Easton FMJ's but I've been thinking about all the new fletchings that are out there. I'm thinking of Blazers. These are 100% for hunting. What do you think?

Post by: TeacherMan on February 13, 2009, 09:00:12 PM: The reason for the extra weight is because I like to shoot big deer, need the extra penetration ability, not looking for one of those wimpy little westside dog deer. :chuckle: :chuckle: Just kidding, don't really have a reason beside I've heard nothing but good things about them, same with the Blazers.

Post by: billythekidrock on February 15, 2009, 06:41:59 PM: Yep, blazers with the FMJs.
Title: Re: Easton Full Metal Jackets, what Fletchings?
Post by: Missing on February 21, 2009, 03:34:52 PM: I switched to the axis FMJ year before last when they first came out and they shot really well, the problem I had was whenever they struck anything hard they shattered, even if they went threw a target first. I was not impressed.
