I don't shoot them anymore but lately I've been thinking about going back to them. I read an interesting article about spine strength consistancy and it seems aluminums have it all over carbons. I don't know, just a thought. Blessings.....Pastorjim
im going to, but not out of my compound. i just recently(yesterday) bought a new set of easton legacy arrows for my recurve, the last set i bought i had them cut down and realized they werent going to work for my recurve. i left them full length and fletched them with 4" LW barred feathers, and 5" LW sheild cut(at least i think they are) feathers. going to shoot them and see which ones i like the best. and, for obvious reasons, i dont have any kills with them yet, and im not even sure which broadheads i want to use. definately a heavy two blade, but i dont know which one. my recurve is a bear grizzly 55#, i dont have any pictures of it, but i will post a picture of the arrows though. i think they turned out pretty good, what do you guys think? hopefully they will have a nice coating of red on them sometine this year...
Mechanic, very nice man. I hope they do get stained blood red this year. I switched back to aluminums this year after shooting carbons for the last 7 years. I took my first few deer with aluminums so I am looking forward to shooting them this year. Shooting Easton 2413 xx75's. Cut em at 29 inches and they weigh around 595 grains.
thanks shadow, mine are 2016's, and i left them full length, they come in at 528. thats with a 150GR feild point, did you go with a heavier broadhead, or are the 2413's just a heavier GPI than mine? by the way, not trying to hijack this thread.
Here's a few of the many animals I took with aluminum arrows for 24 years. In 2009 I switched to FMJ's and gave them a try. Prior to that I shot aluminum arrows for 24 years. There Isn't a thing wrong with aluminum arrows. I just wanted to experiment some with a different arrow.
