What does your arrow cost?

[Camelcluch]

Being an archery nerd most my off time energy is spent with archery. I absolutely love the f magical flight of the arrow. Perfect flight is something amazing. With that I was curious how much money I spend on chasing this magic.
My first set up is $38.73 per arrow. That’s with a typical broadhead. Second set up is premium head and comes in at $55.07.
All I can say is

Well…a lot. I shoot victory VAP TKO’s. Iron Will outfitters inserts, impact collars, etc. honestly, I’m probably looking at 60 ish + per arrow. But you know what? This is the one hobby / lifestyle I’m most passionate about, so ultimately: so what? It’s not like I’m spending it on hookers and coke, right?

I never really added it up. I guess since you get them back 99% of the time to use again the cost gets spread over a long period of time. I’m somewhere in the 35$ range if I itemized a shaft. I’d imagine that’s the average cost most archers have in each one.

Looks like about $52 with broadheads and lighted nocks
Between 18 and 21 depending on fletching without a lighted nock or BH

About 25$. I use a black eagle outlaw arrow with a exodus broadhead and a 75 grain weight screwed into the back of the insert.

Man you guys are eating caviar and I’m over here with canned dollar store tuna.
I’m at about $13-15 an arrow. I generally shoot Black Eagles with magnus broadheads.

 

[NMSbowhunter]

About $35 or so each with lighted nock.

 

[boyne bowhunter]

Black Eagle Carnivores tipped with GizzlyStik Overkill Samurais ~ $44 per.

Too much!! In all honesty probably about $40-$45 an arrow, that includes bare arrow, broadhead, insert, fletching, & nocturnals! Me doing the work! Not a shop!

I was thinking I needed to reevaluate my arrows so I’m glad to see other guys not going crazy

I generally try and buy arrows on sale or from a builder like black orvis or there’s a guy on AT that builds arrows, so I usually get a dozen for around a bill. Then three magnus BHs for around $25-30.

You have no idea how mad I am you made me look at receipts. Would be $67.90 pretax to lose one in the woods as set up right now. Broadheads skew this badly but still. I’m not that good at archery. Or self disciple apparently.

 

[The_Fit_Ness_Monster]

Around $36-$38 per arrow, CX maxima hunters, bloodsport gravediggers chisel tip, bulldog collars and blazer vanes. My take is it doesn’t matter though, it could be $80/arrow and it would be worth it, go buy 60-100# of venison and let me know that cost lol bet it’s way more than the single arrow. I could buy a dozen and break 6 and kill 6 with the other and still come out ahead.

See that’s why I don’t spend big bux.

I'm about with you.....arrows around 12 a shaft, broadheads around 15 a head, beiter nocks, onestringer wraps, AAE max stealth vanes, gold tip insert and pin nock bushing.....it adds up

 

[jtw0057]

Too much. I’ll add it up at some point but around $60. Wishing I had of gone a different route price wise but man they’re shooting good. Sirius Geminis with vpa single bevel, 75g half out and lighted nocks

About $59 rough estimate
- Victory RIP TKO Elite shafts
- G5 Megameat broadhead
- Nockturnal Lighted Nock
- Easton Brass HIT insert
- Iron Will Impact Collar
- AAE Max Stealth Vanes

 

[Camelcluch]

I guess I’m lucky. If I was to add lighted and a decent collar, I’d be in the $80 range. See, I’m thrifty.

Luckily a few of you pointed out some less expensive lighted nocks from Amazon so I don’t look like a total sucker…..

Seth at Sirius Archery has a section of his building named after me. So I don’t go by cost per arrow. I go by square footage. This thread may need to blend into the support thread.
