Well let's see if I can add this up since I've just decided to build all new arrows for this season.
RIP TKO Elites - 190/12 = 15.83
IW HIT Inserts 25g- 25/6 = 4.17
IW Collars 10g - 35/6 = 5.83
AAE Hunter Hybrid vanes - 20/13 = 1.54
WWA 4" wraps - $20/12 = 1.67
AAE IP nocks - 11/12 = 0.92
IW 125g Single Bevels - 120/3 = 40
That's $69.96 per built arrow +/- a few cents, before tax. If I add the 9.75% sales tax if comes to $76.78. Ugh.
I remember justifying getting into archery to SAVE money over shooting and reloading because I could reuse the arrows and wouldn't have to get more very often.
I've since gone through 3 different brands of arrows, 3 different spine weights, and 4 different shaft models.
I've saved nothing lol.
