    RJ,

    Did you know I called about GT CAA's last year and they were determined to tell me they would never carry them.

    Have you heard this or have another place I might be able to order a set of those shafts?

    If I can't go that route, I will probably get a set of GT Pro Hunters and call it good enough for this year. (Gotta get healed up before I can start shooting again anyways).

    Who did you call about this? Your local shop can order them for you, tell them to call Tim Gillingham at 801-229-1666.

    Sorry, I never mentioned who I called.

    I called Lancaster. The guy told me they would probably never carry them. I don't really know why?

    Interesting, I'm surprised they said this. I would call your local shop. The link below will also list local Gold Tip dealers based on your zip code.

    Everytime I use the dealor locator I hope a "new" dealer shows up. Still no luck. Same ole, same ole dealers. :computer:

    I guess I will just order them through the local Gander Mountain. Good thing I have the G5 Arrow Squaring Device, wouldn't trust them cutting the arrows otherwise.
