I am awaiting a response , so probably Monday. 250 spine , 130 inserts/200 head. Factory nocks. 65lb 28” draw vertix. They paper tuned good and didn’t show signs of to weak. They are cut to 27.5. Using the SS insert and collar combo.
Have you reached out to them? Sounds like you got the fuddy duddy pack. I’m sure they’d make it right for you
Yeah I reached out today. That’s what I was wondering. They ran out of stock and posted manufacture shortage right after I received this set. I have a set of 300 spine at 600 grains that appear to be fine. I haven’t shot them as much but I haven’t had any issues with them. The 250 spine setup was going to be my go to this season. But cracking shafts on the nock ends a no go for me.
I called them back in March before buying and they took the time to have a 20 minute conversation with me about their arrows. Due to my extremely long draw length and 70 lbs weight, I was having a hard time getting standard 250 spine to bare shaft. In fear of having to go all the way to 150, I contacted them in sort of desperation and needless to say they made a customer for life out of me. A little pricey compared to the standard gold tips I used to shoot but definitely worth it for me
Absolutely. I spoke to a bow pro here in Florida because I couldn’t get victory or gold tips to bare shaft with 100 grain insert, no matter if I used 100 grain heads, 150 grain heads or 200 grain heads. The bow pro looked over my hoyt and proceeded to tell me I needed a light insert and balanced arrow weight unless I wanted to shoot 150 spines. He told me that 70 lbs with a 32” draw meant I was grossly under spined with 250-300 grains up front. He cursed the ranch fairy (whole other story) and basically told me I needed to go back to my old 450 grain set up. I told him of my success with my 600 plus grain set ups and how I intended to find a way to make them work. As soon as I walked out of that shop, I called Sirius. I asked Seth about his own chart being that my bow is high speed and my arrows would all be 31.5”… he was definitely thorough and helpful. I have broke one arrow out of the dozen I received but that was because I hit that practice arrow with another one of my practice arrows. I’ve shot others into the tree and had to leave the broadhead in the tree to get the arrow back out, but the arrow was still good lol they are tough
Is that with or without collar/outsert? I have bent 1 standard 200 insert but no hard hits with the outsert system yet to compare
No collar or outsert. Just field point and regular insert. And horrible form was free of charge. I’ll post a pic on Monday. I’m currently away from my gear.
I hit (missed actually... haha) a big oak and it was a task to remove...I tried my best and I can't say whether or not the impact or something during extraction bent the insert but it's bent....I'm not saying anything bad about them at all...I consider that abuse any damage from abuse is totally on me and not the products fault. I was just curious.
I run insert/outsert of 75 to 100 grain depending on which broadheads I intend to shoot. I prefer my 150 grain heads with a 100 grain steel insert/outsert, because that particular broad head is a forged single bevel. My 200 grain broadheads all have aluminum ferrel with a screw in single bevel blade. They both work incredibly well but that forged 150 grain is a whole other animal as far as structural integrity.
Siriusly? Critical from Covid?
I am not sure. Cierra Scott from customer service was out. She said the two tech guys were out on emergency back when I posted. She said today one of them was in critical.
I hope those guys are okay
