Semi serious question. Why is it in archery everyone wants arrows to last forever or at least a long time? You ever see a rifle shooter trying re-use a bullet? And dont come at me with I save my brass and reload. That brass is an arrow shelf, it just holds the bullet in place until the shot happens.

Funny you should mention that, my father in law has buckets of lead he collects and has molds to make his own bullets. For when the 'liberals' take over. He literally only need to learn how to make his own primer and he's golden.

Same as @HuumanCreed 5 kids under 10. Full time police officer plus extra side jobs. I loved making my own wooden arrows and I would take great pride in how accurate I could get them. I just don’t have the time or money. I need stuff to last.

Serious question, I have a bow that is 25# @ 28" I draw 29". Think you could get a 600 to tune? The bow was my Mother's and I havent tried to set up any arrows for it. I bought a few easton jazz arrows for my wife to try it and they shot fine for her but way to light and short for me to shoot.

I don’t think so. Your firmly in the 700 spine range. I just logged on to spine calculator for my 37 pounder at my draw and I had to go down to 145 grain head on a 29 inch arrow to get it to work. But I’ll play with it and get back to you. Longbow or recurve? Center cut?

Recurve not sure on center cut. I will see if I can google up anything on that bow lol. I figured the 600 would be way stiff and would take more point weight than practical to get them to tune.
 
There are three more back in stock for the crazy cheap price. Not sure how long they are going to keep doing this but if you're on the fence you might want to grab some.

Someone is trying to sell them on ArcheryTalk for $80. and it sold.....I bet they are just going to have it ship directly to the person they sold it to, make a $40 profit.
 
I'm really curious what the wholesale price would be for these. Anybody work at a bow shop and know roughly what kind of markup gold tip carbon arrows have? I have a feeling this price is at or below cost for a dealer.
 
No, the one I got was not blemished. They look great with no issue at all. I'm not against getting blemish things. In fact the only reason I didnt get blemish arrows at BBTC was because found a blemish Bodnik Slick Stick for $80!
 
The whole thing seems weird and too good to be true. I'm glad to hear everyone that has received theirs have been happy. At least with Amazon you can return them if you're not happy with them. Anxious to get mine.
 
Some reviews state that they aren't full length shafts so be aware.
